New Vision Technologies For Real-World Applications
By Gordon Cooper - 03 Oct, 2019 - Comments: 0

Computer vision – the ability of a machine to ‘infer’ or extract useful information from a two-dimensional image or an uncompressed video stream of images – has the ability to change our lives. It can enable self-driving cars, empower robots or drones to see their way to delivering packages to your doorstep, and can turn your face into a payment method (Figure 1). To achieve these advan... » read more

Blog Review: Oct. 2
By Jesse Allen - 02 Oct, 2019 - Comments: 0

In a video, Cadence's Tom Hackett explains finite element analysis by looking at a simple model of a bridge and showing why FEA techniques are required for analysis of real-world structures. Synopsys' Taylor Armerding examines why the 156-year-old False Claims Act has new relevance when companies are accused of failing to meet cybersecurity standards. Mentor's Colin Walls demystifies memo... » read more

Configure, Confirm, Ship: Build Secure Processor-Based Systems with Faster Time-to-Market
By Synopsys - 02 Oct, 2019 - Comments: 0

Security is a first-order design requirement for processor-based systems. Processor designers implement security functionality directly into the hardware itself to protect the system at its most fundamental layer. System integrators that use processor IP such as Synopsys’ DesignWare ARC processors must ensure that they configure and manage the protection and security features correctly, and t... » read more

Week In Review: Design, Low Power
By Jesse Allen - 27 Sep, 2019 - Comments: 0

eSilicon debuted its 7nm high-bandwidth interconnect (HBI)+ PHY IP, a special-purpose hard IP block that offers a high-bandwidth, low-power and low-latency wide-parallel, clock-forwarded PHY interface for 2.5D applications such as chiplets. HBI+ PHY delivers a data rate of up to 4.0Gbps per pin. Flexible configurations include up to 80 receive and 80 transmit connections per channel and up to 2... » read more

Open ISAs Gaining Traction
By Ann Mutschler - 26 Sep, 2019 - Comments: 0

Open instruction set architectures are starting to gain a foothold, often in combination with other processors, as chipmakers begin to add more specialized compute elements and more flexibility into their designs. There are a number of these open ISAs available today, including Power, MIPS, and RISC-V, and there are a number of permutations and tools available for sale based on those archite... » read more

No More Pizza! The Power Of HPC To Answer: “What’s For Dinner?”
By Ruben Molina - 26 Sep, 2019 - Comments: 0

The other night my wife and I were trying to pick a place we could both agree on for dinner. If you’ve ever been in this situation, you know it can be a difficult problem to solve. I decided to short circuit the usual torture by asking our virtual assistant for a solution. “Hey [Virtual Assistant], where’s a good place to eat?” Thus ensued 15 minutes of intermittent, wrong answers, misc... » read more

Best Practices for Traceability of Functional Safety Requirements In Automotive IP & SoCs
By Synopsys - 25 Sep, 2019 - Comments: 0

Automotive functional safety systems continue to incorporate complex features to meet wide range of consumer demands. Developing functional safety systems, including all the components such as the system-on-chip (SoC) and IP, hinges on the ability to meet the stringent automotive functional safety requirements such as definition, implementation, verification, and validation. Functional safety S... » read more
