FPGAs speed up verification

The next generation of prototyping based on FPGAs could solve the concurrent verification conundrum, writes Juergen Jaeger. With ever-increasing embedded software content in complex system‑on‑chip (SoC) devices, it has become crucial to develop and to verify software and hardware concurrently, and as early as possible in the design cycle. FPGA-based prototyping plays an increasingly important ...

Scottish team makes digital printing breakthrough for mass storage

Scientists at the University of Glasgow say they have developed a new form of high-resolution ‘printing’ which could have wide-ranging applications in data storage, anti-counterfeiting measures, and digital imaging. The research, published in the journal Advanced Functional Materials, describes the development of nano-scale plasmonic colour filters that display different colours depending on the orientation of ...

French research looks to improve in-flight Wi-Fi

French researchers at Leti have developed a technique for testing high-speed wireless communications on airplanes that allows different system deployments in cabins. In a joint research project with Dassault Aviation, Leti, which is a research institute of CEA Tech, demonstrated a channel-measurement campaign over Wi-Fi frequency in several airplanes, including Dassault’s Falcon business jet. A ...

DRAM supply to remain tight in 2018, says DRAMeXchange

Global DRAM supply is forecast to grow by less than 20% next year, according to DRAMeXchange. DRAMeXchange points out that the big three DRAM suppliers – Samsung, SK Hynix and Micron – have opted to slow down their capacity expansions and technology migrations. This is likely to keep prices at high levels as during this ...
