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 ...

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 ...

AI is evolving from perception to generation to goal-driven agentic systems. New tools can now design hardware, software, and ...

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) ...

From flowcharts to firmware, the embedded design pipeline is evolving. This article examines AI’s growing influence on embedded design workflows.

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 ...

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 ...
