Machine learning, AI, require more than just power and performance. The idea that devices can learn optimal behavior rather than relying on more generalized hardware and software is driving a resurgence in artificial intelligence, machine leaning, and cognitive computing. But architecting, building and testing these kinds of systems will require
Questions persist about how to deal with an explosion in data, and who has access to it, but changes are on the horizon. As complexity goes up with each new process node, so does the amount of data that is generated, from initial GDSII to photomasks, manufacturing, yield and post-silicon
Current-generation drones are imperiled by multiple security weaknesses. Is the semiconductor industry doing enough to address the problem? Critics have accused drones of creating multiple dangers, including invading privacy, colliding with other aircraft, threatening personal safety and even frightening livestock. Yet the biggest drone threat of all may turn out
