Cadence's Paul McLellan finds out what's new at TSMC, including a new R&D center, fab construction, capacity increases for existing nodes, and what the company sees for beyond its N... » read more

A Performance Analysis Of The First Generation Of HPC‐Optimized Arm Processors
By Arm - 09 Sep, 2020 - Comments: 0

In this paper, the authors present performance results from Isambard, the first production supercomputer to be based on Arm CPUs that have been optimized specifically for HPC. Isambard is the first Cray XC50 “Scout” system, combining Cavium ThunderX2 Arm‐based CPUs with Cray's Aries interconnect. The full Isambard system contained over 10,000 Arm cores. In this work, we present node‐lev... » read more

Making Everything Linux-Capable
By Ed Sperling - 04 Sep, 2020 - Comments: 0

It's not clear how the edge will play out or what will be the winning formula from a hardware standpoint. But for everything beyond the end device, and possibly even including the end device, a key prerequisite will be the ability to run Linux. That means at least one processor or core within the hardware will need to run 64-bit software. In addition, systems will need to have enough storage... » read more

All-in-One Vs. Point Tools For Security
By Bryon Moyer - 03 Sep, 2020 - Comments: 0

Security remains an urgent concern for builders of any system that might tempt attackers, but designers find themselves faced with a bewildering array of security options. Some of those are point solutions for specific pieces of the security puzzle. Others bill themselves as all-in-one, where the whole puzzle filled in. Which approach is best depends on the resources you have available and y... » read more
