U.S. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said he launched an effort to establish rules on artificial intelligence to address national security and education concerns, Reuters reported. "Time is of the essence to get ahead of this powerful new technology to prevent potentially wide-ranging damage to society and national security and instead put it to positive use by advancing strong, bipartisan... » read more

Week In Review: Design, Low Power
By Jesse Allen - 14 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 0

Arm and Intel Foundry Services inked a multi-generation agreement to enable chip designers to build Arm-based SoCs on the Intel 18A process. The initial focus is mobile SoC designs, but the deal allows for potential expansion into automotive, IoT, data center, aerospace, and government applications. IFS and Arm will undertake design technology co-optimization (DTCO) to optimize chip design and ... » read more

Public USB phone charging stations are now another vector that bad actors can use to plant malware and steal data on devices — known as "juice jacking," according to the United States’ Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The FCC is encouraging people to stay away from these public charging stations, found in airports and hotels, because of bad actors can install malware on the charging... » read more

Transitioning To Photonics
By Karen Heyman - 13 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 1

Silicon photonics is undergoing a resurgence as traditional approaches for reducing power and heat become more difficult and expensive, opening the door to a whole new set of technological challenges and driving up demand for a skill set that is in short supply today. From a technology standpoint, photonics is extremely complex. Signals drift, they are modulated with heat, and structures lik... » read more

Printing Grids In 3D
By David Garlisch - 13 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 0

Those of you who attended the 2011 Pointwise User Group Meeting may remember that our company president, John Chawner, mentioned during his closing statements how nice it would be to have the ability to print your grids in 3D. That was more than just a dreamy, "what if" statement. It is a reality! Almost. A little history 3D-printed F-16 forward fuselage. I have always been fascinat... » read more

Challenges In Photonics Testing
By Karen Heyman - 11 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 0

Photonics is poised for significant growth due a rapid increase in data volumes and the need to move that data quickly and with minimal heat. But to reach its full potential photonics will have to overcome several production hurdles. The biggest challenge today involves alignment. While the industry is poised to produce billions of units, it still relies on testing practices that don't scale. ... » read more
