Deep-learning accelerators need a standard
interface, said a top engineering manager at Uber who sketched a
picture of the company’s use of AI, its data centers, and their
challenges. “AI is really disrupting our industry” across the design of
chips, boards, systems, and services, said Gloria Lau, head of hardware
engineering at Uber, in a keynote at DesignCon here.
The semiconductor manufacturing ecosystem met last
week in Germany to explore how new packaging technologies, design tools
and business models could drive the use of more 3D technologies and
heterogeneous integration.
This paper provides an overview of RADAR
technology as used in ADAS applications, including a summary of the
relevant signal processing, typical computation requirements, and
design parameters. This paper also considers approaches to estimating
computational complexity and processing resource requirements and
addresses some other system design tradeoffs.

Semiconductors had a great 2018, but the fate of
2019 may be in negotiations. The industry shipped more than a trillion
chips last year — a record. Now all eyes have turned to Washington,
D.C., where the U.S. and China hope to hammer out a broad trade deal
that could impact the world’s largest chip market and supply chain.
In this Webinar you will learn how Arrow’s design tools can accelerate your design and development process by providing you with solutions based on the latest technologies and protocols. Made in cooperation with leading suppliers, Arrow’s development boards enable rapid integration of the newest technologies in your design.
After declining for the second straight year in
2018, smartphone sales appear to be poised to fall again this year amid
a global trade war and macroeconomic uncertainty.
The smartphone has been a main driver of the semiconductor industry for
the past several years, ever since PC shipments began to decline in
2012. But that may be a thing of the past. With challenging market
conditions persisting, analysts say shipments may well decline again
this year.

Enterprises in every industry are gearing up for AI’s integration with IoT at the edge. Analytics and cloud-based applications are crucial foundations for the AIoT infrastructure. But even more importantly, AIoT requires complete, real-time access to the data in fulfill the needs of highly responsive edge computing applications.
Marketeers, engineers, and
reporters tend to maintain a love-hate relationship with the Consumer
Electronics Show (CES). The show has gotten too big, its venues are too
spread out, and its show floors are a wall-to-wall mob scene. The
annual event annually grinds Las Vegas traffic to a grudging crawl,
creating a seamless, end-to-end citywide gridlock.
Anyone familiar with Foxconn/Hon Hai Precision
Industry retained a healthy dose of skepticism when Foxconn announced
it would build advanced liquid-crystal displays (LCDs) in
Wisconsin. To put it charitably, Foxconn is not renowned for honoring
its contracts.

Data centers must reach 400GE speeds
to
support emerging technologies such as 5G and IoT. Faster networking
speeds require faster memory and serial bus communications. Download

Over the last two decades, Wi-Fi has transformed connectivity with more than 15 billion installed devices in the world. Such a broad and pervasive installed base, along with its throughput capabilities and native IP capabilities, makes Wi-Fi an attractive protocol for IoT wireless applications. However, a key limitation of most Wi-Fi based IoT systems is high power consumption.
18 years into the new
millennium, there are a number of exciting and evolving electronic
innovations taking place. Among them is the development of
‘intelligent’ robots for industry, especially in smart factories.The
advent of 5G communications will enable factories to take data from
the production floor that will improve quality and enable increased
automation.

Silicon Labs’ WF200 is the ultimate
IoT Wi-Fi solution with ultra-low power consumption, advanced security
features to prevent online and physical hacking, and great RF blocking
performance to allow for excellent operation in crowded RF conditions.

After a seven-month trial run, Bob Swan takes the
helm of the biggest U.S. chipmaker at a critical juncture in its
50-year history. Intel remains a dominant force in chips, but the jury
is out on how long that will be the case. Analysts say that big
decisions on the immediate horizon will determine where Intel stands
years down the road. Time for Swan to roll up his sleeves.
The European Network on High Performance and
Embedded Architecture and Compilation (HiPEAC) presented a strategy for
Europe to remain competitive in addressing next generation embedded
systems as part of its Vision 2019 report at its 14th conference on the
future of computing last week in Valencia, Spain.
This White Paper explores how by using SDR,
engineers can build radios
that can react more readily to interference, employ more sophisticated
channel-coding schemes to increase data rates, and take advantage of
other advanced RF technologies.

Anyone poised to choose an AI model
solely based
on its accuracy might want to think again. A key issue, according to
IBM Research, is how resistant the AI model is to adversarial attacks.
IBM researchers, collaborating with other research institutes, are
presenting two new papers on the vulnerability of AI. One study focuses
on how to certify the robustness of AI against adversarial attacks...
