System Design Considerations For Embedded Heterogeneous Multiprocessing (HMP)
By Kinjal Dave - 10 Aug, 2017 - Comments: 0

Heterogeneous multiprocessor (HMP) systems, using functionally asymmetric compute elements, such as application processors and microcontrollers integrated within the same SoCs, are now used extensively across a wide range of applications. These SoCs are used in smart, connected devices to transform the way we live – at home, in the car, and in our cities – with even more intelligence, speed... » read more

IP Challenges Ahead
By Brian Bailey - 10 Aug, 2017 - Comments: 0

The revenue from semiconductor [getkc id="43" kc_name="IP"] has risen steadily to become the largest segment of the EDA industry. Industry forecasts expect it to keep growing at a CAGR of more than 10% for the next decade. Part one of this article examined the possibility those forecasts are wrong and that large semiconductor companies are likely to start bringing IP development back in hous... » read more

Wearables Are Distributed Computing’s New Frontier
By Brian Fuller - 09 Aug, 2017 - Comments: 0

If you want to see the latest wearables, head to your local electronics or sporting goods store. But if you want to see the latest wearables that are leveraging machine learning at the edge, say hello to Monisha Perkash, Andrew Chang and their colleagues. Perkash and Chang co-founded Lumo Bodytech, a six-year-old, 30-person Internet of Things (IoT) startup that is not only shaking up the we... » read more

System Performance Analysis At ARM
By Arm - 09 Aug, 2017 - Comments: 0

Performance analysis is a vital task in modern SoC design. An under-designed SoC may run too slowly to keep up with the demands of the system. An over- designed SoC will consume too much power and require more expensive IP blocks. At ARM we want to help our partners build SoCs that deliver the best performance within their power and area budgets. The simple truth is that this is more difficu... » read more

CCIX Enables Machine Learning
By Brian Bailey - 31 Jul, 2017 - Comments: 5

It takes a lot of technology to enable something like machine learning, and not all of it is as glamorous as neural network architectures and algorithms. Several levels below that is the actual hardware on which these run, and that brings us into the even less sexy world of interfaces. One such interface, the Cache Coherent Interconnect for Accelerators (CCIX), pronounced C6, aims to make th... » read more
