GenAI, the most talked-about manifestation of AI these days, imposes two tough constraints on a hardware platform. First, it demands massive memory to serve large language model with billions of parameters. Feasible in principle for a processor plus big DRAM off-chip and perhaps for some inference applications but too slow … Read More
Synopsys recently hosted an information rich-webinar, modestly titled “Improving Quality, FuSa, Reliability, and Security in Automotive Semiconductors”. I think they undersold the event; this was really about managing all of those things through the lifecycle of a car, in line with auto OEMs strategies for the future of the… Read More

Robert has held various marketing and technical positions for leading functional verification and test automation products at various companies including Synopsys, Novas… Read More
That datacenters are power hogs is not news, especially now AI is further aggravating this challenge. I found a recent proteanTecs-hosted panel on power challenges in datacenter infrastructure quite educational both in quantifying the scale of the problem and in understanding what steps are being taken to slow growth in power… Read More
The rapid advancement of technology, including generative AI, IoT, and autonomous vehicles, is revolutionizing industries and enhancing efficiency. At the same time, such advances also generate huge amounts of data to be transmitted and processed to make sense and provide value to consumers and society as a whole. In essence,… Read More
The demand for high-bandwidth, low-latency networking solutions has never been greater. As artificial intelligence (AI) workloads continue to grow exponentially, and hyperscale data centers become the backbone of our digital infrastructure, the need for faster and more efficient communication technologies becomes imperative.… Read More
In the technology realm of artificial intelligence (AI) and high-performance computing (HPC), the demand for higher throughput and efficiency has never been greater. To meet these evolving demands, innovative memory solutions have emerged as critical enablers, paving the way for transformative advancements in computing… Read More
The subjects of Generative AI and Large Language Models (LLMs) permeate businesses and the public conversation. It’s not without good reason! While this emergent field of AI develops, it is now seen at a minimum as a valuable assistant, or, often, a dramatic accelerant to productivity, even to technical workflows.
As we’re … Read More
General purpose CPUs have run most EDA tools quite well for many years now, but if you really want to accelerate something like simulation then you start to look at using specializedhardware accelerators. . Emulators came onto the scene around 1986 and the processing power has greatly increased over the years, mostly in response… Read More
