Energy-Aware DL: The Interplay Between NN Efficiency And Hardware Constraints (Imperial College London, Cambridge)


A new technical paper titled "Energy-Aware Deep Learning on Resource-Constrained Hardware" was published by researchers at Imperial College London and University of Cambridge. Abstract "The use of deep learning (DL) on Internet of Things (IoT) and mobile devices offers numerous advantages over cloud-based processing. However, such devices face substantial energy constraints to prolong batte... » read more

IoT Security By Design


After years of anticipation and steady uptake, the Internet of Things (IoT) seems poised to cross over into mainstream business use. The percentage of businesses utilizing IoT technologies has risen from 13% in 2014 to approximately 25% today. Global projections indicate that the number of IoT-connected devices is expected to reach 43 billion by 2030, nearly tripling from the figures in 2018. O... » read more

Changes In Motor Control


Motors are changing in fundamental ways, and you can actually hear the difference. Vacuums, air conditioners, and home appliances are getting quieter. They're also becoming more efficient, able to last longer on a single battery charge or drawing less energy from the grid, and they're becoming more secure. Steve Tateosian, senior vice president for Infineon's IoT, Compute & Wireless Busines... » read more

Building Vision-Enabled Devices To Capture The Emerging Wave In IoT


The evolution of vision (the eye) is considered one of the most significant events in the history of life on Earth. 540 million years ago, during the Cambrian period, there was a sudden burst of evolutionary activity that resulted in the appearance of a variety of new species. Many of these species were characterized by the development of an eye which allowed them to perceive and interact with ... » read more

Transforming Industrial IoT With Edge AI And AR


The Internet of Things (IoT) has evolved significantly from its early days of centralized cloud processing. Initially, IoT applications relied heavily on cloud-based data processing, where data from various devices was collected, processed, and analyzed in the cloud before insights were sent back to the devices. While effective, this approach has limitations, particularly in environments requir... » read more

What IoMT Really Stands For


The basic goals of engineering include the achievement of a product’s purpose, safety, cost, manufacturability, and supportability, among other things. For internet of things (IoT) applications, much of the essential purpose relates to wireless communications that untether communication from wires and cables. This is especially true of the rapidly growing internet of medical things (IoMT), wh... » read more

Power Budgets Optimized By Managing Glitch Power


“Waste not, want not,” says the old adage, and in general, that’s good advice to live by. But in the realm of chip design, wasting power is a fact of physics. Glitch power – power that gets expended due to delays in gates and/or wires – can account for up to 40% of the power budget in advanced applications like data center servers. Even in less high-powered circuits, such as those fou... » read more

Edge And IoT Security Turning A Corner


Security is beginning to improve for a wide range of IoT and edge devices due to better tools, the implementation of new standards and methodologies, and an increasing level of collaboration and communication across different market segments that in the past had little or no interaction. Until recently, many vendors in cost-sensitive markets offered the bare minimum of security. To make matt... » read more

Advancing AI At The IoT Edge


In a highly connected world, there is a need for more intelligent and secure computation locally and preferably on the very devices that capture data, whether it be raw or compressed video, images, or voice. End markets continue to expect compute costs to trend down, at a time when computation demands are increasing, as is evident from recently popularized AI paradigms such as large language mo... » read more
