Today all chip designs begin as lines of code. The code is written at a high level, hiding much of the complexity from the designer, and then synthesized into a low-level description for layout and ...

Value stream management involves people in the organization to examine workflows and other processes to ensure they are deriving the maximum value from their efforts while eliminating waste — of ...

The boundaries between IP reuse, interconnect design, and hardware-software integration are no longer independent.

Where are the system-level design tools that we need for systems on chips? For years the semiconductor industry has been marching noisily toward the world of SoCs, but now that we are here, we find ...

Model-based systems engineering (MBSE) has been around for a while, but it continues to gain ground in engineering projects ...

Every good hardware or software design starts with a structured approach throughout the design cycle, but as chip architectures and applications begin focusing on specific domains and include some ...

In today's lightning-fast software landscape, traditional architecture practices are becoming a bottleneck. The velocity and complexity of systems scaling across ephemeral microservices, complex APIs ...

Sustainable software engineering addresses the challenge of developing, maintaining and evolving software systems that not only meet the demands of modern society but also minimise environmental ...

Conhas Thakkar explores how digital twins can help to reshape the design methodology of automotive semiconductors and systems, enabling truly software-defined vehicles. Digital twin in automotive ...

Used to perform FMEA, Software FMEA/HAZOP, DFA, and cybersecurity threat analysis, the software has embedded knowledge about likely system level problems that helps detect design issues early, for ...
