Making Tradeoffs With AI/ML/DL
By Ann Mutschler - 11 May, 2023 - Comments: 0

Machine learning, deep learning, and AI increasingly are being used in chip design, and they are being used to design chips that are optimized for ML/DL/AI. The challenge is understanding the tradeoffs on both sides, both of which are becoming increasingly complex and intertwined. On the design side, machine learning has been viewed as just another tool in the design team's toolbox. That's s... » read more

Data Leakage Becoming Bigger Issue For Chipmakers
By Ed Sperling - 04 May, 2023 - Comments: 0

Data leakage is becoming more difficult to stop or even trace as chips become increasingly complex and heterogeneous, and as more data is stored and utilized by chipmakers for other designs. Unlike a cyberattack, which typically is done for a specific purpose, such as collecting private data or holding a system ransom, data leaks can spring up anywhere. And as the value of data increases, th... » read more

EDA Makes A Frenzied Push Into Machine Learning
By Ed Sperling - 27 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 0

Machine learning is becoming a competitive prerequisite for the EDA industry. Big chipmakers are endorsing and demanding it, and most EDA companies are deploying it for one or more steps in the design flow, with plans to add much more over time. In recent weeks, the three largest EDA vendors have made sweeping announcements about incorporating ML into their tools at their respective user eve... » read more

Nightmare Fuel: The Hazards Of ML Hardware Accelerators
By Steve Roddy - 13 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 0

A major design challenge facing numerous silicon design teams in 2023 is building the right amount of machine learning (ML) performance capability into today’s silicon tape out in anticipation of what the state of the art (SOTA) ML inference models will look like in 2026 and beyond when that silicon will be used in devices in volume production. Given the continuing rapid rate of change in mac... » read more

AI Benchmarks Are Broken
By Jon Bunting - 14 Mar, 2023 - Comments: 0

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is shaping up to be one of the most revolutionary technologies of our time. By now you’ve probably heard that AI’s impact will transform entire industries, from healthcare to finance to entertainment, delivering us richer products, streamlined experiences, and augment human productivity, creativity, and leisure. Even non-technologists are getting a glimpse of... » read more

Week In Review: Auto, Security, Pervasive Computing
By Linda Christensen - 10 Mar, 2023 - Comments: 0

Rambus will begin selling Arm's CryptoCell embedded security platform and CryptoIsland root-of-trust cores, setting the stage for a much broader push by Rambus into security for a wide range of connected devices, and ultimately into security as a service. Under the terms of the deal, Rambus' customers will be able to license Arm IP directly from Rambus. For Arm's existing customers, there will ... » read more

The Next Disruption
By Steve Roddy - 09 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

Machine learning (ML) is an inherently disruptive technology because the algorithm architectures are evolving so fast and are very compute intensive, requiring innovative silicon for acceptable performance. This blog looks at where we’ve been and where ML is going – into another market ready for disruption. ML started in the data center In the early days of the ML explosion – a mere 8 o... » read more

Disaggregating And Extending Operating Systems
By Karen Heyman - 09 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

The push toward disaggregation and customization in hardware is starting to be mirrored on the software side, where operating systems are becoming smaller and more targeted, supplemented with additional software that can be optimized for different functions. There are two main causes for this shift. The first is rising demand for highly optimized and increasingly heterogeneous designs, which... » read more
