Samsung plans to begin mass production of 2nm process GAA chips in 2025, reports BusinessKorea. UMC developed the first radio frequency silicon on insulator (RF-SOI)-based 3D IC ... » read more

Distributing RTL Simulation Across Thousands Of Cores On 4 IPU Sockets (EPFL)
By Technical Paper Link - 02 May, 2024 - Comments: 0

A technical paper titled “Parendi: Thousand-Way Parallel RTL Simulation” was published by researchers at EPFL. Abstract: "Hardware development relies on simulations, particularly cycle-accurate RTL (Register Transfer Level) simulations, which consume significant time. As single-processor performance grows only slowly, conventional, single-threaded RTL simulation is becoming less practical... » read more
