100G Ethernet At The Edge
By Ed Sperling - 19 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 0

The amount of data is growing, and so is the need to process it closer to the source. The edge is a middle ground between the cloud and the end point, close enough to where data is generated to reduce the time it takes to process that data, yet still powerful enough to analyze that data quickly and send it wherever it is needed. But to make this all work requires faster conduits for that data i... » read more

Choosing The Correct High-Bandwidth Memory
By Ann Mutschler - 25 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

The number of options for how to build high-performance chips is growing, but the choices for attached memory have barely budged. To achieve maximum performance in automotive, consumer, and hyperscale computing, the choices come down to one or more flavors of DRAM, and the biggest tradeoff is cost versus speed. DRAM remains an essential component in any of these architectures, despite years ... » read more

Choosing The Right Memory At The Edge
By Ed Sperling - 09 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

As the amount of data produced by sensors in cars and phones continues to grow, more of that data needs to be processed locally. It takes too much time and power to send it all to the cloud. But choosing the right memory for a particular application requires a series of tradeoffs involving cost, bandwidth, power, which can vary greatly by device, application, and even the data itself. Frank Fer... » read more

Using Silicon Photonics To Reduce Latency On Edge Devices
By Technical Paper Link - 26 Oct, 2022 - Comments: 0

A new technical paper titled "Delocalized photonic deep learning on the internet’s edge" was published by researchers at MIT and Nokia Corporation. “Every time you want to run a neural network, you have to run the program, and how fast you can run the program depends on how fast you can pipe the program in from memory. Our pipe is massive — it corresponds to sending a full feature-leng... » read more

Complex Tradeoffs In Inferencing Chips
By John Koon - 17 Oct, 2022 - Comments: 0

Designing AI/ML inferencing chips is emerging as a huge challenge due to the variety of applications and the highly specific power and performance needs for each of them. Put simply, one size does not fit all, and not all applications can afford a custom design. For example, in retail store tracking, it's acceptable to have a 5% or 10% margin of error for customers passing by a certain aisle... » read more

Training a ML model On An Intelligent Edge Device Using Less Than 256KB Memory
By Technical Paper Link - 11 Oct, 2022 - Comments: 0

A new technical paper titled "On-Device Training Under 256KB Memory" was published by researchers at MIT and MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab. “Our study enables IoT devices to not only perform inference but also continuously update the AI models to newly collected data, paving the way for lifelong on-device learning. The low resource utilization makes deep learning more accessible and can have a bro... » read more
