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 ...

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 ...

About 15 years ago, the assumption in the EDA industry was that system design would be inevitable. The transition from gate-level design to a new entry point at the register transfer level (RTL) ...

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 ...

If there is one thing in software engineering that is a given, it’s that engineers need continuous education. While graduating college might have made us think that we were “done,” the truth is that ...

In today’s competitive digital landscape, SaaS companies must deliver consistent, scalable, and user-friendly products ...

DARPA is launching a four-year research project to investigate the requirements necessary for software systems and data to remain robust and functional in excess of a century. You know those ...
