IoT Standards Needed
By Ed Sperling - 02 Oct, 2014 - Comments: 0

The promise of the [getkc id="76" comment="Internet of Things"] is effortless communication between devices, all of which are smart enough to transmit data to the Internet directly, or through connecting hubs, and to ad hoc devices that are authorized to be added to a personal or industrial network. What's not yet clear is how that promise will be realized. Even though many devices are desig... » read more

The JTAG Connection
By Ernest Worthman - 02 Oct, 2014 - Comments: 0

It is fairly common knowledge that hacking into today’s intelligent Internet devices is child’s play in most cases. The main reason is that the devices have little or no innate security designed in. When they do have some level of security, it is generally provisioned by software running on the host system, to which the devices are connected. But that only works with a device on the grid. O... » read more

OSI’s Model For Security
By Ernest Worthman - 02 Oct, 2014 - Comments: 0

In just six years, according to Cisco Systems, there will be 50 billion devices interconnected within the IoT universe. IDC puts that number at a whopping 212 billion. Either way, it really doesn't matter. The fact is that the vast majority will be talking to each other, autonomously, and though the cloud – a nightmare management scenario, no matter how one spins it. The implications of th... » read more

The Missing Link
By Ann Mutschler - 02 Oct, 2014 - Comments: 0

What continues to fascinate me about the IoT opportunity is the explosion of creative ideas that are being imagined and developed to enable the next big thing. When I imagine the kind of connectivity and control that will need to happen between the Internet and ‘smart’ devices, these things obviously must be very inexpensive, super small, with the ability to harvest their own energy. ... » read more

‘Hardening’ SoCs For Automotive Market Challenges
By Kurt Shuler - 26 Sep, 2014 - Comments: 0

The semiconductor is enamored with the automotive, industrial and medical markets, and many companies are now shifting their focus there. But many mainstream vendors will face challenges entering this market. For those who have traditionally participated in the smart phone or mobility market, I will outline some changes they need to consider to successfully compete in these emerging spaces. ... » read more

How To Cut Verification Costs For IoT
By Brian Bailey - 25 Sep, 2014 - Comments: 0

Cost is one of the main factors limiting proliferation of the [getkc id="76" comment="Internet of Things"] (IoT), and when looking at the design and [getkc id="10" kc_name="Verification"] methodologies in place today, verification is a prime candidate for closer inspection. For today’s complex [getkc id="81" kc_name="SoCs"], the cost of verification has been rising faster than design and it h... » read more

IoT Demands Correct By Construction Assembly
By Brian Bailey - 25 Sep, 2014 - Comments: 0

The article Limiters To The Internet Of Things outlined several factors that are slowing the rate of deployment for the [getkc id="76" kc_name="IoT"]. Those limiters are cost, power delivery and storage, standards, security, and the limits of your imagination. This article picks up on a comment made by [getperson id="11244" comment="Chris Rowen"], fellow at [getentity id="22032" e_name="Cadence... » read more

Productivity And The IoT
By Ann Mutschler - 25 Sep, 2014 - Comments: 0

The market for devices that connect almost everything to the [getkc id="76" comment="Internet of Things"] is projected to explode, creating opportunities for companies that haven’t been traditional chip developers to decide to start developing devices. Semiconductor Engineering sat down to discuss this topic with Jack Guedj, corporate VP of Tensilica products at [getentity id="22032" e_name="... » read more

I Have Seen The Future
By Mike Gianfagna - 25 Sep, 2014 - Comments: 0

We recently concluded an online survey that measured design challenges and general sentiment regarding how they can be addressed, with some specific forward-looking queries. The title of the survey was “Big Data, the Cloud and Internet of (Silicon) Things.” We essentially asked our survey respondents to look into the future. We got an excellent response to this survey, with lots of thoughtf... » read more

How Chip Vendors Counter Security Vulnerabilities In The IoT
By Tony Massimini - 18 Sep, 2014 - Comments: 0

The objective of the Internet of Things is connectivity and interoperability of many connected devices. There is a large amount of data that is being generated. This data is transmitted from end devices, the “things,” through a network of gateways, routers, smartphones, PCs and other devices up to the cloud into vast databases. Many sources of little data develop into Big Data. Information ... » read more
