At the risk of calling down the forecast universal opprobrium, I’m going to disagree with Dan’s take on the centrality of Intel.
I don’t agree that Intel is too big/important to fail or that the US can’t succeed in semiconductors without… Read More
IEDM turned 70 last week. This was cause for much celebration in the form of special events. One such event was a special invited paper on Tuesday afternoon from Intel’s Tahir Ghani, or Mr. Transistor as he is known. Tahir has been driving innovation at Intel for a very long time. He is an eyewitness to the incredible impact of the Moore’s… Read More
A crucial step in helping any new technology specification gain adoption is certification. NIST has been hard at work establishing more than post-quantum cryptography algorithms – they’ve also integrated the new algorithms into their process for third-party validation testing to ensure implementations are as advertised.… Read More

From my viewpoint, standards organizations in semiconductor design always looked like they were “sharpening the saw”: further polishing/refining what we already have but not often pushing on frontiers. Very necessary of course to stabilize and get common agreement in standards but equally always seeming to be behind the innovation… Read More
