Overview of Incorporating LLMs into EDA, With 3 Case Studies (TU Munich et al.)


A new technical paper titled "Large Language Models (LLMs) for Electronic Design Automation (EDA)" was published by researchers at the Technical University of Munich, University of Stuttgart, New York University, and University of Siegen. Abstract "With the growing complexity of modern integrated circuits, hardware engineers are required to devote more effort to the full design-to-manufactu... » read more

Adaptive Scheduling for Time-Triggered Network-on-Chip-Based Multi-Core Architecture Using Genetic Algorithm


Abstract "Adaptation in time-triggered systems can be motivated by energy efficiency, fault recovery, and changing environmental conditions. Adaptation in time-triggered systems is achieved by preserving temporal predictability through metascheduling techniques. Nevertheless, utilising existing metascheduling schemes for time-triggered network-on-chip architectures poses design time computatio... » read more

Manufacturing Bits: Feb. 13


Watching nanowires grow Using X-ray techniques, the University of Siegen and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) have observed the formation of tiny nanowires in gallium arsenide (GaAs) materials in real time. GaAs is used for fiber optics, infrared systems, RF devices in mobile phones and solar panels in spacecraft. Observing the growth of GaAs nanowires could lead to a better unde... » read more
