Development of Complex Multicore Systems: Tracing Challenges and Concept
By Various Writers - 30 May, 2013 - Comments: 0

This white paper is the first paper of a two-part Mentor Embedded multicore white paper series. In this paper, the challenges software developers face when developing, debugging, and validating software applications for a complex multicore system will be discussed. The paper also highlights some of the questions around hardware resource usage, tracing aids, tracing domains, and concepts for col... » read more

The Evolving Interconnect
By Ann Mutschler - 28 Mar, 2013 - Comments: 0

By Ann Steffora Mutschler Chip interconnect protocol requirements are evolving as designs move to 20nm and below process geometries, and not always in predictable ways. At least part of this is being driven by what an SoC is used for. The continued push to shrink features opens up real estate at each new process node. For the past decade, that real estate has been used to add more featu... » read more

Multicore Madness
By Mark LaPedus - 21 Feb, 2013 - Comments: 0

By Mark LaPedus Smartphones and tablets are migrating towards new and faster application processors, basebands, graphics chips and memories. In the cell-phone chipset area alone, there are a multitude of options and design considerations. Some devices combine the application processor and modem on the same chip. Some are separate devices. In addition, the architectures range from single- to... » read more

Keeping The Balance
By Ed Sperling - 13 Sep, 2012 - Comments: 0

By Ann Steffora Mutschler The brains of datacenters today are more powerful than ever due to technology advancements in chip architectures and in manufacturing processes that allow more processing power thanks to Moore’s Law. But knowing exactly how and where to configure the processors and cores for optimum throughput and performance within a certain power budget raises a number of qu... » read more

Low Power Drives New Architectures
By Ed Sperling - 08 Sep, 2011 - Comments: 0

By Pallab Chatterjee Power became the driving discussion at several major events last month. The global cries for energy reduction, which have been mainstream since the early 1970s on the political level, have now moved to being real economic realities for component and systems suppliers. Chipmakers are finding that lower power makes good economic sense—lower cost of packaging, lower cost... » read more
