WEBINAR: Engineering Documentation is a Critical Source of Truth – Do You Know if it’s Accurate?

WEBINAR: Engineering Documentation is a Critical Source of Truth – Do You Know if it’s Accurate?
by Mike Gianfagna on 06-11-2026 at 8:00 am

llmda homepage block (2)

Embedded systems programs rarely fail because of a lack of execution capability. They fail because critical engineering documentation drifts out of alignment over time and distance. Simply put, the team is correctly following the wrong instructions. This includes requirements, architecture, implementation, verification,… Read More

Picture1 CEMH

The semiconductor industry is generating more engineering data than ever before.

This article follows the previously published GFL and TCG foundation pieces. GFL introduced the lifecycle-governance problem. TCG clarified why observable or interoperable data is not automatically trustworthy convergence evidence. CEMH… Read More


An Update on IP Lifecycle Management (IPLM)

An Update on IP Lifecycle Management (IPLM)
by Bernard Murphy on 06-03-2026 at 6:00 am

IP Lifecycle Management

IPLM is not always prominent, nevertheless it is a very necessary aspect of semiconductor (and systems) design. Modern designs build on a wide range of IPs and subsystems, each evolving through multiple variants and versions, each with different PPA characteristics and recommended use-cases, many from different suppliers… Read More
