How AI In Edge Computing Drives 5G And The IoT
By Ron Lowman - 13 Feb, 2020 - Comments: 0

Edge computing, which is the concept of processing and analyzing data in servers closer to the applications they serve, is growing in popularity and opening new markets for established telecom providers, semiconductor startups, and new software ecosystems. It’s brilliant how technology has come together over the last several decades to enable this new space starting with Big Data and the idea... » read more

AI: A Perfect Solution But At What Cost?
By Chris Bergey - 13 Feb, 2020 - Comments: 0

The advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) has been a great enabler for the Internet of things (IoT). Given the ability to think for itself, it’s shrugged off its original definition as a network of tiny sensors and grown to incorporate a host of more intelligent AIoT (AI+IoT) devices, from smartphones all the way up to autonomous vehicles. AI has also paved the way for new IoT device... » read more

Changes In AI SoCs

Security Is Key When AI Meets 5G
By Tim Messegee - 06 Feb, 2020 - Comments: 0

5G represents a revolution in mobile technology with performance that will rival that of wireline networks. Relative to its 4G predecessor, 5G promises 10X the data rate, 100X the efficiency, and 1000X the capacity, at 1/100th the latency. With 1Gbps speed at 1ms latency, 5G makes it possible to offer a host of real-time applications and services. Real-time is critical, because in parallel t... » read more

Machine Learning… Everywhere
By Stelios Diamantidis - 06 Feb, 2020 - Comments: 0

AI is transforming the world around us, creating an avenue to innovation across all sectors of the global economy. Today, AI can interact with humans through natural language; identify bank fraud and protect computer networks; drive cars around city streets; and play complex games like chess and Go. Machine-learning is offering solutions to many complex problems around us where analytical solut... » read more

Hardware Attack Surface Widening
By Ed Sperling - 06 Feb, 2020 - Comments: 0

An expanding attack surface in hardware, coupled with increasing complexity inside and outside of chips, is making it far more difficult to secure systems against a variety of new and existing types of attacks. Security experts have been warning about the growing threat for some time, but it is being made worse by the need to gather data from more places and to process it with AI/ML/DL. So e... » read more

Software Is At Least As Important As Hardware For Inference Accelerators
By Geoff Tate - 06 Feb, 2020 - Comments: 0

In articles and conference presentations on Inference Accelerators, the focus is primarily on TOPS (frequency times number of MACs), a little bit on memory (DRAM interfaces and on chip SRAM), very little on interconnect (also very important, but that’s another story) and almost nothing on the software! Without software, the inference accelerator is a rock that does nothing. Software is wha... » read more

Bigger, Faster, More Diverse And Expensive
By Ed Sperling - 06 Feb, 2020 - Comments: 0

Aart de Geus, chairman and co-CEO of Synopsys, sat down with Semiconductor Engineering to talk about the race toward AI everywhere, how splintering markets are affecting design, and why software is now such a critical component of hardware development. SE: We're seeing big advances in compute performance due to advanced packaging and heterogeneous architectures. Is that sustainable? de Ge... » read more
