Architecture & Design

CCIX is a cache coherency protocol, based on PCI Express, for interconnecting high-performance heterogenous multiprocessing systems.

Operating at near-threshold or sub-threshold voltages reduces static and dynamic power consumption, at the cost of design complexity.

Quadrupling the performance of a dedicated CNN engine within an embedded vision processing core brings more complex graph processing within reach.

The rising bandwidth demands of data centres have driven the development of 25G Ethernet, which will also form a pathway to 100G.

Our extended fireside chat with Mentor Chairman and CEO Wally Rhines begins by canvassing his thoughts now the Siemens deal is done.

Using deep learning techniques and convolutional neural networks to bring facial recognition capabilities to embedded systems.

Addressing the challenge of achieving ASIL D certification of the functional safety of an SoC for use in the safety-critical path of an automotive system.

Thinner phones are going to need new connectors. Many designers are considering USB Type-C, and the related Audio Device Class 3.0 specification (ADC 3.0), for use in high-quality digital headsets.

SSD controllers are becoming increasingly complex and as a result emulation is now the first choice for SSD verification. But your strategy must still meet five key criteria.

Software validation strategies will become increasingly important as cars become more complex, connected and autonomous.
