Automation aims to standardize industrial operations and bring overall efficiency to today’s production lines. Such gains, however, may come with considerable effort, as engineering teams must ...

Just to get the ball rolling, let’s start by reminding ourselves that system-on-chip (SoC) devices are composed of functional units called intellectual property (IP) blocks or cores. A modern SoC can ...

Set-based design (SBD) is a methodology that systematically explores a broad design space by concurrently considering multiple design alternatives before progressively narrowing the choices. This ...

Today, we are witnessing a paradigm shift towards a more modular design approach that disaggregates SoC functions into various chiplets, each optimized for specific functionalities. Chiplets offer ...
