Reduce Data Center Over-Provisioning And Stranded Capacity For Sustainability
By Hassan Moezzi - 09 Nov, 2023 - Comments: 0

In the ever-evolving landscape of data centers, the issue of stranded capacity has become a significant concern for operators. Stranded capacity refers to the underutilization of resources. It is best referred to as the elephant in the data center due to the enormity of its impact. The losses are even more significant for the enterprise data center categories at above 40%. This outcome n... » read more

Die-To-Die Security
By Ed Sperling - 02 Oct, 2023 - Comments: 0

Security concerns are growing as more chiplets or die are added into a package. There are more possible attack points, and data is becoming increasingly valuable, which makes a successful attack much more lucrative than in the past. Mike Borza, Synopsys scientist, talks about the impact of heterogeneous integration on security, what the risks are for multi-tenant data centers, and what happens ... » read more

Developing Energy-Efficient AI Accelerators For Intelligent Edge Computing And Data Centers
By William Ruby - 10 Aug, 2023 - Comments: 0

Artificial intelligence (AI) accelerators are deployed in data centers and at the edge to overcome conventional von Neumann bottlenecks by rapidly processing petabytes of information. Even as Moore’s law slows, AI accelerators continue to efficiently enable key applications that many of us increasingly rely on, from ChatGPT and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) to smart edge device... » read more

Mission-Critical Devices Drive System-Level Test Expansion
By Laura Peters - 11 Jul, 2023 - Comments: 0

System-level testing is becoming essential for testing complex and increasingly heterogeneous chips, driven by rising demand for reliable parts in safety- and mission-critical applications. More and more chip manufacturers are jumping on the SLT bandwagon for high-volume manufacturing (HVM) of these devices. Unlike ATE and packaged device testing, SLT mimics actual semiconductor system opera... » read more

A Highly Wasteful Industry
By Brian Bailey - 25 May, 2023 - Comments: 1

The systems industry as a whole is not concerned about power. I know that is a bold statement, but I believe it to be true. The semiconductor industry is mildly concerned, but only indirectly. They care about power because thermal issues are limiting the functionality they can squeeze onto a chip, or in a package. Some users, such as data center operators, claim to care about power because i... » read more

Adding Security Into Test
By Ed Sperling - 04 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 0

Security is becoming a much bigger concern as more electronics are added into cars, as more devices are connected to the internet, and as the value of data continues to increase. The problem is that security is dynamic. It continues to change throughout the lifetime of a system, and some of these devices are expected to last for a decade or more. Lee Harrison, director of Tessent product market... » read more

Enabling New Server Architectures With The CXL Interconnect
By Lou Ternullo - 09 Mar, 2023 - Comments: 0

The ever-growing demand for higher performance compute is motivating the exploration of new compute offload architectures for the data center. Artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) are just one example of the increasingly complex and demanding workloads that are pushing data centers to move away from the classic server computing architecture. These more demanding workloads can be... » read more

The Vital Role Of 1.6T Networking In Emerging Technology
By Ben Miller - 23 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

Although warehouses filled with acres of buzzing server racks may not seem like the most likely places to find exciting new technology, data centers play a crucial role in the emerging technologies of tomorrow. Industry 4.0, artificial intelligence (AI), virtual reality (VR), metaverse, and Internet-of-Things (IoT) are all high-demand applications which rely on data centers to provide powerful ... » read more

How To Raise Reliability, Availability, And Serviceability Levels For HPC SoCs
By Charlie Matar - 09 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

By Charlie Matar, Rita Horner, and Pawini Mahajan While once the domain of large data centers and supercomputers, high-performance computing (HPC) has become rather ubiquitous and, in some cases, essential in our everyday lives. Because of this, reliability, availability, and serviceability, or RAS, is a concept that more HPC SoC designers should familiarize themselves with. RAS may sound... » read more
