The Impact Of ML On Chip Design
By Ed Sperling - 22 May, 2023 - Comments: 0

Node scaling and rising complexity are increasing the time it takes to get chips out the door. At the same time, design teams are not getting larger. What is needed is a way to automate the creative process, and to not have to start every design from scratch. This is where reinforcement learning fits in, with its ability to centralize and store “tribal knowledge. Thomas Andersen, vice preside... » read more

Can ML Help Verification? Maybe
By Brian Bailey - 22 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 0

Functional verification produces an enormous amount of data that could be used to train a machine learning system, but it's not always clear which data is useful or whether it can help. The challenge with ML is understanding when and where to use it, and how to integrate it with other tools and approaches. With a big enough hammer, it is tempting to call everything a nail, and just throwing ... » read more
