IoT Security Ratings Needed
By Ed Sperling - 02 Feb, 2017 - Comments: 0

Concerns about security have been growing alongside adoption of the IoT, and it seems to be making some headway. This is good news, if it continues, because one of the biggest concerns about buying connected devices is that they can provide inroads into personal data. Data security has been a persistent annoyance for several years. Almost anyone who travels or shops at major department store... » read more

Rapid SoC Proof-Of-Concept For Zero Cost
By Mentor, a Siemens Business - 02 Feb, 2017 - Comments: 0

A new breed of designers has arrived that is leveraging inexpensive sensors to build the intelligent systems at the edge of the Internet of Things (IoT). They work in small teams, collaborate online, and they expect affordable design tools that are easy to use in order to quickly produce results. Their goal is to deliver a functioning device to their stakeholders while spending as little money ... » read more

Chaos, Progress In Mobile Payment Security
By Gale Morrison - 02 Feb, 2017 - Comments: 0

Semiconductor suppliers and their embedded software partners, internally and externally, have made tremendous strides in recent years supporting secure mobile payment processing. It hasn't been easy. Or simple. And it's still evolving. The result of those efforts, which is now set to play an increasingly important and widespread commercial role in 2017, are trusted execution environment t... » read more

Simplifying The Road To ISO 26262 Compliance
By Robert Bates - 02 Feb, 2017 - Comments: 0

By Joseph Dailey and Robert Bates Since the release of ISO 26262 in November 2011, companies have had to figure out how to navigate the standard’s requirements throughout the development process of electrical and/or electronic systems for road vehicles. Recently new trends have emerged — software companies have started pre-qualifying both their software tools for use by their customers, ... » read more

Data Storage Issues Grow For Cars
By Ann Mutschler - 02 Feb, 2017 - Comments: 0

Adding safety features into cars and making them increasingly autonomous are rapidly creating a big data problem. More sensors produce more data, which has to be processed, moved, and ultimately stored somewhere in those vehicles. Exactly how that will be achieved isn't quite clear yet. However, there is plenty of discussion on that topic—and for good reason. A new 2017 car will genera... » read more

What’s New In Connected Autos
By Jeff Dorsch - 02 Feb, 2017 - Comments: 0

Connected cars and the Internet of Things go together like peanut butter and jelly. But realizing the future of autonomous vehicles will demand close attention to be paid to cybersecurity, functional-safety standards, and other critical factors. [getkc id="76" kc_name="IoT"] will advance the era of self-driving cars, which currently is dominated by Tesla Motors. At the same time, it will cha... » read more

Blog Review: Feb. 1

Synopsys' Anand Thiruvengadam investigates the challenges and tradeoffs that come with different abstraction models and use models in mixed-signal verification. Cadence's Paul McLellan highlights 16 big questions facing autonomous cars, from a presentation by Andreessen-Horowitz's Frank Chen. Mentor's Colin Walls says that when it comes to free stuff, keep an eye out for the real cost. ... » read more

Software Modeling Goes Mainstream
By Ed Sperling - 01 Feb, 2017 - Comments: 0

Software modeling is finally beginning to catch on across a wide swath of chipmakers as they look beyond device scaling to improve performance, lower power, and ratchet up security. Software modeling in the semiconductor industry historically has been associated with hardware-software co-design, which has grown in fits and starts since the late 1990s. The largest chipmakers and systems compa... » read more

2017: Tool And Methodology Shifts
By Brian Bailey - 26 Jan, 2017 - Comments: 0

As the markets for semiconductor products evolve, so do the tools that enable automation, optimization and verification. While tools rarely go away, they do bend like plants toward light. Today, it is no longer the mobile phone industry that is defining the direction, but automotive and the Internet of Things (IoT). Both of these markets have very different requirements and each creates their o... » read more

Hybrid Simulation Picks Up Steam
By Ann Mutschler - 26 Jan, 2017 - Comments: 0

As electronic products shift from hardware-centric to software-directed, design teams are relying increasingly on a simulation approach that includes multiple engines—and different ways to use those engines—to encompass as much of the system as possible. How engineers go about using these approaches, and even how they define them, varies greatly from one company to the next. Sometimes it... » read more
