Confidential Computing: A Key To Secure Cloud And Edge Environments
By Raj Uppala - 10 Oct, 2024 - Comments: 0

Historically, data security was primarily focused on safeguarding data residing within systems controlled by the users themselves, such as on-premise storage and server infrastructure. In such a siloed environment, information stored on the storage media, Data-at-Rest, was encrypted to ensure security. Data-in-Motion (aka Data-in-Transit) was safeguarded by encrypting it before transmitting it ... » read more

Managing Legacy In Automotive

Experts At The Table: The automotive ecosystem is in the midst of an intense evolution as OEMs and tiered providers grapple with how to deal with legacy technology while incorporating ever-increasing levels of autonomy, electrification, software defined vehicle concepts, just to name a few. Semiconductor Engineering sat down to discuss these and other related issues with Wayne Lyons, senior dir... » read more

CXL Thriving As Memory Link
By Karen Heyman - 16 Sep, 2024 - Comments: 0

CXL is emerging from a jumble of interconnect standards as a predictable way to connect memory to various processing elements, as well as to share memory resources within a data center. Compute Express Link is built on a PCI Express foundation and supported by nearly all the major chip companies. It is used to link CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, and other purpose-built accelerators using serial communic... » read more

HBM4 Feeds Generative AI’s Hunger For More Memory Bandwidth
By Nidish Kamath - 12 Sep, 2024 - Comments: 0

Generative AI (Gen AI), built on the exponential growth of Large Language Models (LLMs) and their kin, is one of today’s biggest drivers of computing technology. Leading-edge LLMs now exceed a trillion parameters and offer multimodal capabilities so they can take a broad range of inputs, whether they’re in the form of text, speech, images, video, code, and more, and generate an equally broa... » read more

Higher Density, More Data Create New Bottlenecks In AI Chips
By Adam Kovac - 12 Sep, 2024 - Comments: 0

Data movement is becoming a bigger problem at advanced nodes and in advanced packaging due to denser circuitry, more physical effects that can affect the integrity of signals or the devices themselves, and a significant increase in data from AI and machine learning. Just shrinking features in a design is no longer sufficient, given the scaling mismatch between SRAM-based L1 cache and digital... » read more

Chip Industry Week In Review

CPU Performance Bottlenecks Limit Parallel Processing Speedups
By Bryon Moyer - 12 Aug, 2024 - Comments: 0

Multi-core processors theoretically can run many threads of code in parallel, but some categories of operation currently bog down attempts to raise overall performance by parallelizing computing. Is it time to have accelerators for running highly parallel code? Standard processors have many CPUs, so it follows that cache coherency and synchronization can involve thousands of cycles of low-le... » read more
