PowerArtist exploring and fixing hotspots in a GPU

Back in the late 1990s, Sente launched a product called WattWatcher to estimate power from design RTL and simulation activity. This was revolutionary for its time since alternatives, while very accurate, only offered power analysis at the gate level. Gate-level analysis is great for fine-tuning power but is unhelpful for achieving… Read More


An Insight into Building Quantum Computers

Quantum processor courtesy IBM

Given my physics background I’m ashamed to admit I know very little about quantum computers (QC) though I’m now working to correct that defect. Like many of you I wanted to start with the basics: what are the components and systems in the physical implementation of a quantum “CPU” and how do they map to classical CPUs? I’m finding the… Read More

Intel Foundry Direct Connect Hall 4 1024x576

Now that the dust has settled, I will give you my take on the Intel Foundry event. Some might call me a semiconductor event critic as I have attended hundreds of them over the last 40 years starting with the Design Automation Conference in 1984. Foundry events are my favorite because they really are the pulse of the semiconductor industry,… Read More
