New technical papers recently added to Semiconductor Engineering’s library: [table id=95 /] If you have research papers you are trying to promote, we will review them to see if they are a good fit for our global audience. At a minimum, papers need to be well researched and documented, relevant to the semiconductor ecosystem, and free of marketing bias. There is no cost involved for us p... » read more

ML-Based Third-Party IP Trust Verification Framework (U. of Florida, U. of Kansas)
By Technical Paper Link - 01 May, 2023 - Comments: 0

A technical paper titled "Hardware IP Assurance against Trojan Attacks with Machine Learning and Post-processing" was published by researchers at University of Florida and University of Kansas. Abstract: "System-on-chip (SoC) developers increasingly rely on pre-verified hardware intellectual property (IP) blocks often acquired from untrusted third-party vendors. These IPs might contain hidd... » read more

New Method Improves Machine Learning Models’ Reliability, With Less Computing Resources (MIT, U. of Florida, IBM Watson)
By Technical Paper Link - 13 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

A new technical paper titled "Post-hoc Uncertainty Learning using a Dirichlet Meta-Model" was published (preprint) by researchers at MIT, University of Florida, and MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab (IBM Research). The work demonstrates how to quantify the level of certainty in its predictions, while using less compute resources. “Uncertainty quantification is essential for both developers and users o... » read more

Testing Chips For Security
By Jeff Goldman - 06 Oct, 2022 - Comments: 0

Supply chains and manufacturing processes are becoming increasingly diverse, making it much harder to validate the security in complex chips. To make matters worse, it can be challenging to justify the time and expense to do so, and there’s little agreement on the ideal metrics and processes involved. Still, this is particularly important as chip architectures evolve from a single chip dev... » read more
