Machine Talk
By Ed Sperling - 03 May, 2013 - Comments: 0

The Internet of Things raises some interesting questions that have never been fully addressed in semiconductor design. For instance, how do you assess the necessary performance for any particular thing? And how long is another thing willing to wait for information to be passed along? These sound like fairly basic engineering questions—until you consider that the Internet of Things is actua... » read more
