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 ...

As mentioned in the previous articles on System Design For The AI Era, AI is more than a change in hardware and software. It is a change in design methodology that will require subsequent changes in ...

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 ...

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 ...
