Although RTL has traditionally been the starting point for digital design, it is becoming too expensive and time consuming. Algorithmic intensive hardware for AI in autonomous vehicles requires a new flow. Companies like BOSCH Visiontec, STMicroelectronics and Chips&Media have turned to a High-Level Synthesis...

Note, this is the second part of an interview with Mentor Graphics; for the first instalment go here.
For Siemens, Mentor Graphics' software capabilities with chip and board design, particularly the latter, was attractive, as the German company sought to build its digital-twinning offer as...
In a tucked-away corner of a hangar-like exhibition space in Munich, US electronic design automation (EDA) company Mentor Graphics is reflecting on its recent status, as a small but notable function within German mega-corp Siemens.
“It probably sounds like a plug but I’ve got to...
Chinese giant Alibaba told a packed-out room at Electronica 2018 in Munich, in Germany, yesterday that Europe is well placed in the emerging tech arms race against China and the US, specifically for development of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies.
UK universities and German corporations,...
Once a successful proof-of-concept has been established, what’s next? The day after creating a proof-of-concept of your custom IC, you might ask “Now what do we do?” It is time to make your idea real and start developing a system prototype.

Computer vision is powering advances in automotive, medical, consumer, and agriculture markets. Because the world of computer vision coupled with machine learning evolves so quickly, teams need a way to design and verify an algorithm while the specifications and requirements evolve without starting over...
For full system SoC verification, hardware emulation has sufficient execution speed, visibility and ease-of-use to span the entire range of verification needs throughout the life of the design development process.
Cloud-integrated software framework accelerates time-to-market for IoT devices
Whether its an asset tracking platform meant to follow materials across a production floor or a light monitor that helps lower energy consumption in an industrial facility, at the heart of every internet of things (IoT) device...
In the world of IC design, the RTL flow prevails. But today’s competitive market for state-of-the-art image processing, high-bandwidth communication, and computer vision and neural computing solutions demand another level of abstraction. RTL design and verification does not allow companies in these markets to...
This white paper discusses reasons why a new high-level synthesis/high-level verification flow gives companies like Qualcomm several advantages.
The case study example will summarize the flow and its benefits, and describe how it can provide even more advantageous features in the near future.
Security issues around IoT edge devices are rarely mentioned in literature, however, the projected billions of IoT edge devices out in the wild makes for a vast attack surface. Should hardware designers be concerned about security for IoT edge devices? And, is it worth...

The news provides a stream of reports that factory workers will be replaced by robots due to the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT).
But actually, IIoT is transforming the way companies and factories operate by automating actionable information starting with the supply chain, through the...
