Engineering Challenges for Viable Autonomous Vehicles
By Mentor, a Siemens Business - 02 May, 2018 - Comments: 0

The rise of autonomous and electric vehicles brings with it a host of engineering implications, including an increase in the number and variety of sensors in the vehicle, increasing software and hardware complexity, massive validation and verification cycles, heightened safety and security requirements, and new demands for digital data continuity. This paper is an overview of how six interdisci... » read more

Partitioning Becomes More Difficult
By Ann Mutschler - 30 Apr, 2018 - Comments: 0

The divide-and-conquer approach that has been the backbone of verification for decades is becoming more difficult at advanced nodes. There are more interactions from different blocks and features, more power domains, more physical effects to track, and far more complex design rules to follow. This helps explain why the number of tools required on each design—simulation, prototyping, em... » read more

Architecture, Materials And Software
By Ed Sperling - 12 Apr, 2018 - Comments: 0

AI, machine learning and autonomous vehicles will require massive improvements in performance, at the same power consumption level (or better), over today's chips. But it's obvious that the usual approach of shrinking features to improve power/performance isn't going to be sufficient. Scaling will certainly help, particularly on the logic side. More transistors are needed to process a huge i... » read more

Merging Verification With Validation
By Brian Bailey - 22 Mar, 2018 - Comments: 3

Verification and validation are two important steps in the creations of electronic systems and over time their roles, but how they play together is changing. In fact, today we are seeing a major opportunity for rethinking this aspect of the flow, which could mean the end of them as separate tasks for many of the chips being created. As with many things in this industry, however, squeezing it... » read more

How To Build Security Into Your Software Development Process
By Synopsys - 21 Mar, 2018 - Comments: 0

To standardize the software development life cycle (SDLC), organizations implement development methodologies to fulfill their objectives in a way that best suits their organizational goals. Whether you use Agile, Waterfall, or something in between, building security into your SDLC can improve efficiency and reduce costs if it’s done the right way.

2017 Coverity Scan Report
By Synopsys - 07 Feb, 2018 - Comments: 0

Today, open source software (OSS) development is one of the primary driving forces of technological innovation. From artificial intelligence to the Internet of Things, autonomous driving, and cloud computing infrastructure, OSS plays a pivotal role in the evolution of a wide range of technologies. But what are the implications of its dominance? To answer this, we review what we’ve learn... » read more

Verification Of Functional Safety
By Brian Bailey - 25 Jan, 2018 - Comments: 4

Functional safety is becoming a key part of chip design, and an increasingly problematic one for many engineering teams. Functional safety for electrical and electronic systems is nothing new. It has been an important element of the military, aerospace and medical industries for many years. But the growing importance of functional safety within the automobile industry presents a number o... » read more

Who Needs OWASP?
By Synopsys - 03 Jan, 2018 - Comments: 0

A list of critical web application security vulnerabilities is a necessary risk management tool. Equally true is that each organization has a different set of vulnerabilities plaguing their applications. To complete a trifecta of fundamental truths, crowdsourced lists such as the OWASP Top 10 rarely reflect an individual organization’s priorities. Given these three points, many organizatio... » read more
