Breaking the Sorting Barrier for Directed Single-Source Shortest Paths

Breaking the Sorting Barrier for Directed Single-Source Shortest Paths
by Admin on 08-13-2025 at 8:00 am

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


Chiplets and Cadence at #62DAC

Chiplets and Cadence at #62DAC
by Daniel Payne on 08-12-2025 at 10:00 am

SoC Cockpit Concept min

Using chiplets is an emerging trend well-covered at #62DAC and they even had a dedicated Chiplet Pavilion, so I checked out the presentation from Dan Slocombe, Design Engineering Architect in the Compute Solutions Group at Cadence. In a short 20 minutes Dan managed to cover a lot of ground, so this blog will summarize the key  points.… Read More


The Critical Role of Pre-Silicon Security Verification with Secure-IC’s Laboryzr™ Platform

The Critical Role of Pre-Silicon Security Verification with Secure-IC’s Laboryzr™ Platform

Pre Silicon Security Verification (Hardware SCA)

As embedded systems and System-on-Chip (SoC) designs grow in complexity and integration, the risk of physical attacks has dramatically increased. Modern day adversaries no longer rely solely on software vulnerabilities; instead, they exploit the physical properties of silicon to gain access to sensitive data. Side-channel… Read More
