Executive Insight: Lip-Bu Tan
By Ed Sperling - 01 Oct, 2015 - Comments: 1

Lip-Bu Tan, president and CEO of Cadence, sat down with Semiconductor Engineering to talk about consolidation, Moore's Law, and where the opportunities are in the IoT and automotive markets. What follows are excerpts of that conversation. SE: What are the big concerns for the semiconductor industry in general, and EDA in particular? Tan: Top on my list is all the consolidation that's goin... » read more

Is HW Or SW Running the Show?
By Brian Bailey - 24 Sep, 2015 - Comments: 1

In the past, hardware was designed and then passed over to the software team for them to add their contribution to the product. This worked when the amount of software content was small and the practice did not significantly contribute to product delays. Over time, the software content grew and today it is generally accepted that software accounts for more product expense than hardware, takes l... » read more

Wearable Devices: A Limitless Future
By Warren Kurisu - 24 Sep, 2015 - Comments: 0

Today, there are many wearable systems across industries including medical and health care, safety, smartwatches, smart goggles and glasses, smart shoes and clothing — even smart pet trackers! So why is there such a proliferation of devices, even though many of these portable/embedded devices have been around for decades? There are a few key technical trends enabling these devices. F... » read more

The Price Of Consolidation
By Ed Sperling - 24 Sep, 2015 - Comments: 0

Consolidation is causing far-reaching changes across the global semiconductor ecosystem due to the size of companies being bought and the dearth of startups to replenish those being acquired. Coupled with the rising cost and difficulty of shrinking features down to advanced process nodes—many argue that is the largest driver of consolidation—the market dynamics for who's buying IP, EDA t... » read more

Developing Effective Design Strategies For Today’s Wearable Devices
By Ed Sperling - 23 Sep, 2015 - Comments: 0

While many new fitness bands, smartwatches, and other wearable devices have entered the market, most have under-whelmed prospects and users. It is quite clear the wearable industry is in its infancy and fraught with growing pains. Software developers, embedded systems architects and engineers must take heed in the early miscalculations of these devices (whether it’s functionality, utility, pr... » read more

Appetite For Services Grows
By Ed Sperling - 11 Sep, 2015 - Comments: 0

Semiconductor service revenues have been growing for the past year, fueled by complex thermal and power issues at advanced nodes, the difficulty of integrating more and more IP blocks, and far more techniques, languages and methodologies that engineers need to learn to be productive in the finFET generation. The services business typically acts as a bridge between down and up cycles in the c... » read more

How To Speed Up Networking Design Verification
By Lauro Rizzatti - 10 Sep, 2015 - Comments: 0

The enormous growth of the Internet of things (IoT) has an enormous impact on network providers. After all, without the underlying network infrastructure, there would be no IoT. One consequence has been a significant increase in the number of Ethernet ports on networking devices. Today, Ethernet switches and routers reach 256 ports (by year’s end that number will increase to 1024 ports), a... » read more

Recognizing that Web applications based on the REST architecture have become ubiquitous, IOT deployments in a wide variety of market segments can benefit from using Web technology and the REST architecture. This paper demonstrates how ARM Sensinode NanoService solution can be used to provide a s... » read more

IoT’s 3 Big Demands On The Semiconductor Industry
By Anne Cirkel - 03 Sep, 2015 - Comments: 1

Sometime in the last decade or two, whenever you signed up for your first cell phone contract, you became an untethered node in the electronic data network. Of course no one was talking about IoT then, but the trend – machine-to-machine communication and basic computation, often independent of human input – was already well underway. (What else but an early instantiation of IoT was the hand... » read more

Internet Of Things Design Considerations For Embedded Connected Devices
By Mentor, a Siemens Business - 03 Sep, 2015 - Comments: 0

Embedded connectivity has been around since the early days of M2M. But what is new are the many complexities and emerging standards embedded system developers need to know if they are to design the latest IoT device. This paper delves into many of the key considerations developers need to know and discusses the critical areas of IoT security and connectivity along with the importance of a prove... » read more
