How IoE Will Alter Supply Chains
By Ernest Worthman - 06 Aug, 2015 - Comments: 0

Globalization is a double-edged sword. Without a doubt, it nourishes competition, offers a plethora of independent sources, and bounty of supplies from a global pool of vendors. That is the good side. The downside is that control becomes a management nightmare. Well-oiled, traditional supply chains systems will have to be redesigned to function across a variety of variables that can interrupt t... » read more

Prototyping To Help You Win The Battle
By Tom De Schutter - 30 Jul, 2015 - Comments: 0

Lately, my children and I are closely following a new show on ABC called “Battlebots”. The concept is as simple as it is cool—have a massive bulletproof arena where two remote-controlled robots battle it out until one is knocked out or the time is up (and a jury decides the winner). The battles are all about making physical contact with the other robot to either directly deal them damage ... » read more

Cloud 2.0
By Ed Sperling - 09 Jul, 2015 - Comments: 0

Corporate data centers are reluctant adopters of new technology. There is too much at stake to make quick changes, which accounts for a number of failed semiconductor startups over the past decade with better ideas for more efficient processors, not to mention rapid consolidation in other areas. But as the amount of data increases, and the cost of processing that data decreases at a slower rate... » read more

Securing Modern-Day Devices With Embedded Virtualization And ARM TrustZone Technology
By Mentor, a Siemens Business - 06 Jul, 2015 - Comments: 0

When securing today’s modern devices, it’s not enough to know the type of device you want to secure. Equally important is the process used to develop that device. In this paper, we’ll take a closer look at security as it relates to protecting data, building security into a device, and securing SoCs in multicore architectures. ARM TrustZone technology, which provides a solution for carving... » read more

Executive Insight: Wally Rhines

Wally Rhines, chairman and CEO of Mentor Graphics, sat down with Semiconductor Engineering to talk about what's changing across a wide swath of the industry, where the new opportunities will be, when security will become a real opportunity for EDA, and why Moore's Law will die but progress will continue forever. SE: Looking back over the past year, what's changed and where are the possible r... » read more

What Is A System Now?
By Ann Mutschler - 25 Jun, 2015 - Comments: 0

Defining a system used to be relatively straightforward. But as systems move onto chips, and as those chips increasingly are connected with applications and security spanning multiple devices, the definition is changing. This increases the complexity of the design process itself, and it raises questions about how chips and software will be designed and defined in the age of the [getkc id="76... » read more

Shift Left: Software Or Hardware?
By Tom De Schutter - 25 Jun, 2015 - Comments: 0

A couple of weeks ago I was with a virtual prototyping user who described the benefits his company has seen from deploying virtual prototyping for early software development. The use of virtual prototyping has been rolled out progressively to more projects over the years, making it possible for the company to measure its impact on the software availability schedule and the impact has been drama... » read more
