Agentic AI and the Future of Engineering
Agentic AI emerges in this Synopsys Converge keynote not as a futuristic add-on, but as a practical response to the growing complexity of engineering. In the speaker’s view, the traditional way of designing chips, systems, and intelligent products is no longer sufficient for the era of physical AI. Engineers are now dealing with… Read More
WEBINAR: Outrunning the Data Wave – Why we need to keep pace with the coming 400% data surge
The semiconductor manufacturing industry has hit a new era of data intensity. We know that we need to look at alternatives to silicon and that electrical interconnects are unable to keep pace. We know we need to design more chiplets and alter microchip architecture. But how much data are we talking specifically, and how much
