Figure 1 Mind the AI Agency Gap

Agentic AI refers to goal-driven software entities—“digital coworkers”—that can plan, decide, and act on an organization’s behalf with minimal supervision. Unlike classic chatbots or coding assistants that respond only to prompts, agentic systems combine models (e.g., LLMs) with memory, planning, tools/APIs, sensing,… Read More

Dijkstra's Algorithm

Problem & significance.
Single-source shortest paths (SSSP) on directed graphs with non-negative real weights is a pillar of graph algorithms. For decades, the textbook gold standard has been Dijkstra’s algorithm with good heaps, running in the comparison-addition model (only comparisons and additions on weights).… Read More

Samtec cable management SemiWiki

According to a recent Samtec whitepaper, in high-data-rate (HDR) architectures, where signals traverse tens to hundreds of gigabits per second, “cable management” isn’t a housekeeping chore, it’s a first-order design variable. The mechanical path a cable takes directly influences channel loss, crosstalk, reliability,

imec XTCO Image SemiWIki

imec XTCO (Cross-Technology Co-Optimization) is the natural successor to DTCO and STCO in an era where no single layer of the stack can deliver scaling alone. Instead of optimizing devices, interconnect, packaging, architecture, and software in isolation, XTCO treats them as one tightly coupled system with a shared budget … Read More

Epitaxial stacks of silicon and silicon germanium are emerging as a key materials platform for three dimensional dynamic random access memory. Future DRAM will likely migrate from vertical channels to horizontally stacked channels that resemble the gate all around concept in logic. That shift demands a starter material made… Read More

CoPoS is a Bigger Canvas for Chiplets and HBM
by Admin on 08-03-2025 at 10:00 am

Chip on Panel on Substrate, often shortened to CoPoS, extends the familiar idea of chip on carrier packaging by moving the redistribution and interposer style structures from circular wafers to large rectangular panels. The finished panel assembly is then mounted on an organic or glass package substrate. This shift from round
