Performance To The People
By Ed Sperling - 13 Jul, 2017 - Comments: 0

Ever since the IoT became a household term, the almost universal concept was that extremely low-power, simplistic devices would rule the edge. They would collect data, send it to the cloud, and the cloud would send back useful information. That's a great marketing concept for gateways and cloud services, but it's not scalable. Consumers don't just want to know when their heartbeat is irregul... » read more

Advanced Packaging Picks Up Steam
By Jeff Dorsch - 10 Jul, 2017 - Comments: 0

The semiconductor industry’s push toward continued miniaturization and increasing complexity is driving wider adoption of system-in-package (SiP) technology. One of the big benefits of [getkc id="199" kc_name="SiP"] is that it allows more features to be squeezed into ever-smaller form factors, such as wearable gadgets and medical implants. So while the individual chips in this package may ... » read more

How Good Is Your Data?
By Ed Sperling - 06 Jul, 2017 - Comments: 0

Machines can be taught by other machines. They also can talk to other machines on their own, with no human intervention, which is the great attraction of the Internet of Things. Sensor clusters or other trucks can pass along critical data that alerts a multi-trailered truck to slow down or take a different route. And sensors feeding a variety of data, such as temperature or vibration, can is... » read more

IoT Security? Let Them Eat Cake!
By Asaf Ashkenazi - 06 Jul, 2017 - Comments: 0

Often attributed to Marie Antoinette, the now famous phrase “let them eat cake” (qu'ils mangent de la brioche) is typically used to highlight one’s lack of understanding of a serious issue. This attitude is particularly noticeable in the world of IoT security. Everyone acknowledges that the clear majority of IoT devices are vulnerable and easily compromised, as many lack even the most ... » read more

IoT Startups Rake In Cash
By Jeff Dorsch - 06 Jul, 2017 - Comments: 0

Corporate and venture investors are still eagerly backing Internet of Things startups, with more than $850 million committed during the first six months of 2017. This year’s total may not reach the heights of 2014, when investors put more than $5 billion into IoT startups, or 2016, which saw IoT firms receiving about $4.75 billion, the Venture Scanner website estimates. Still, a once white... » read more

By Philip Sparks - 06 Jul, 2017 - Comments: 0

Almost 20 years ago, on a clear, chilly spring day in Massachusetts, Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan spoke at the Boston College Finance Conference 2000. What he said would mark a pivotal moment in our thinking about the impact of technology: “When historians look back at the latter half of the 1990s a decade or two hence, I suspect that they will conclude we are now living through... » read more
