In this week's top five picks, Ansys' Justin Nescott explores the importance of energy efficiency in lighting, buildings, and… jellyfish? Plus, getting more sky into apartments, and flying through the sky on a jetpack. Terahertz waves are difficult to create and detect, but it may be easier thanks to a Swiss research team. Rambus' Aharon Etengoff digs into how they used a common megapixel ... » read more

Security Improvements Ahead
By Ed Sperling - 10 Nov, 2015 - Comments: 0

After nearly two years of talking about how security is one of the biggest problems facing the IoE, progress is being made on a number of fronts. The changes involve many companies, both individually and collaboratively through standards groups. And while none of this will stop the kind of high-profile breaches that affected Target or Home Depot or JPMorgan Chase or a long list of other gian... » read more

The Week In Review: Design/IoT
By Jesse Allen - 06 Nov, 2015 - Comments: 0

Mentor Graphics began selling infrastructure hardware this week, including an end-to-end IoT solution that includes a reference design for a customizable gateway, a cloud backend, and runtime solutions on which to build a wide array of IoT edge devices. Mentor also released virtual platforms for Altera's Arria 10 SoC FPGA, and updated its Valor PCB manufacturing process to focus on Industry 4.0... » read more

The Great IoE Race Begins
By Ed Sperling - 05 Nov, 2015 - Comments: 0

Nobody knows how many tens of billions of semiconductors will be used in the IoE, but it's a sure bet it won't be a few chips replicated billions of times. Most IoE devices will need to be customized for specific applications. Many will need to be highly reliable for many years. And all of them will need to be secure and power-efficient. Yet they also will need to connect to heterogeneous ne... » read more

Making Cars Smarter
By Ann Mutschler - 05 Nov, 2015 - Comments: 1

The fuel injection control unit has come a long way since 1983 when Ford Motor Co. first included a 16-bit Intel microcontroller-based fuel injection system in its 4-cylinder Escort. Today, some high end vehicles contain more than 100 microprocessors, which is mind boggling in comparison to that Escort that contained just one. To be sure, the automotive industry is a unique animal. Compared ... » read more

What Markets And Winners Will IoT Produce?
By Brian Derrick - 05 Nov, 2015 - Comments: 0

IoT is trending. However, a consistent definition of IoT can be tough to find in the deluge of marketing, which often overlooks the fact that Internet-connected devices have been around for decades. Many established tech companies have developed and deployed a wide variety of products, both building out the IoT and beginning to define it. Intel in particular has published a slew of excellent vi... » read more

The Automotive V-Cycle
By Ann Mutschler - 05 Nov, 2015 - Comments: 0

During the research for my article on making cars smarter, I learned from Andrew Patterson at [getentity id="22017" e_name="Mentor Graphics"] that when it comes to the [getkc id="10" kc_name="verification"] side, one well-established practice in the automotive industry is the use of the V-Cycle design methodology (also known as the V-Model) and that carmakers tend to follow that. He explain... » read more

The Cloud, The IoE, And You
By Ernest Worthman - 05 Nov, 2015 - Comments: 0

If you’re anywhere in the high-tech biz, the two terms that are rocking your world are the Internet of Everything and the Cloud. Whether you are on the inside track of these, or on the sidelines, they are going to be two of the most disruptive technologies of the 21st century. The cloud is already here and gaining momentum. Some people will argue that the cloud has been here since the ince... » read more

SoC Verification For The Internet of Things
By Mentor, a Siemens Business - 04 Nov, 2015 - Comments: 0

Larger, more complex designs with more software and tighter power budgets require new verification solutions that target the associated technological challenges. This paper explores why traditional digital simulation and hardware prototypes fall short when it comes to verifying IoT and network designs, why using emulation is critical for a total verification solution, and why traditional in-cir... » read more

Blog Review: Nov. 4
By Jesse Allen - 04 Nov, 2015 - Comments: 0

Can agile methodologies typically used in software development bring more efficiency to chip design? For UC Berkeley Professor Borivoje Nikolic, the answer is, why not? Christine Young reports on the keynote at Cadence's Mixed-Signal Technology Summit. For his latest embedded video, Mentor's Colin Walls focuses the camera on language standardization and use of language extensions. Ansys' ... » read more
