Joseph F. Krause is an American materials scientist, entrepreneur, and U.S. Army National Guard veteran. He is the cofounder and CEO of Radical AI, a New York deep-tech startup founded to accelerate the discovery of advanced materials.
Before Radical AI, Krause conducted nanomaterials research at Rice University, worked on… Read More
CoWoS-S and CoWoS-R are two versions of TSMC’s Chip-on-Wafer-on-Substrate advanced packaging platform. Both technologies are designed to combine high-performance processors, chiplets and high-bandwidth memory, or HBM, within a single package. This shortens the electrical connections between computing and memory components,… Read More
Software defined vehicles (SDVs) are transforming the automotive industry. Today’s vehicles are connected computing platforms that rely on advanced processors, artificial intelligence (AI), over the air (OTA) software updates, cloud services, and vehicle to everything (V2X) communications. Every electronic … Read More

Most hardware teams already understand why formal verification matters. It can expose corner cases that simulation may never reach and establish critical behaviors across the modeled state space.
The unresolved question is not whether formal works. It is why formal remains a specialist… Read More
Every generation of semiconductor innovation has relied on one fundamental principle: before a technology can be manufactured at scale, it must first be understood. That understanding comes through characterization.
For decades, characterization enabled process learning. It helped engineers understand transistor behavior,… Read More
Daniel is joined by David Liberman, a Los Angeles-based futurist, serial entrepreneur, investor, and former Director of Products at Snap, as well as the co-creator of the Gonka protocol. Gonka is a decentralized protocol that connects people who need computing power for AI with operators who provide GPU hardware. Its goal is … Read More
The face of EDA is changing. For forty years, this industry has focused on optimizing algorithms for design, verification and implementation of chips. That work has delivered some ground-breaking innovations. Logic synthesis is a good example. There are so many more. Thanks to the innovations commonly referred to as Frontier… Read More
This year, DAC will be buzzing about AI from every direction. The debate of build vs. buy will also be a popular topic. And the debate of who owns the intellectual property embodied in chip designs and how to control it will also get a significant amount of airtime. These are all interesting and compelling discussion points. It turns… Read More
Automated debugging – starting from an unexpected behavior to find a bug root-cause or a small set of possible root-causes – is a hot topic now that agentic systems are playing a bigger role in automation. Unsurprising since debug remains the most time and resource-consuming aspect of verification, in turn the most time/resource-consuming… Read More
Si2 is conducting quite a few sessions at DAC this year covering everything from power model standards to agentic AI. There is one session that is a bit different, focusing on LLM benchmarking. Since AI is popping up everywhere, the ability to accurately assess and measure the quality of new models becomes more important. That’s… Read More
