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.

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

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 ...

What are the five core principles of hardware/software co-design? How do these principles help build a geographically diverse engineering organization that can successfully develop complex solutions ...

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 ...

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 ...
