There once was a time when system design was completely serial. Entire hardware platforms were designed, prototyped, debugged, and virtually completed before any software development began. Of course, ...

As embedded software takes a leading role in product behavior, disconnected product definition and limited change visibility between firmware and hardware are driving more redesign cycles than many ...

Modern embedded systems are expected to operate with predictable timing, continuous reliability, and near-instantaneous response under increasingly complex workloads. From automotive control units and ...

For the past 20 years, the industry has sought to deploy hardware/software co-design concepts. While it is making progress, software/hardware co-design appears to have a much brighter future. In order ...

A lever long enough can move anything. As Archimedes put it, “Give me where to stand, and I will move the Earth.” Were that sage alive today, he might apply the same reasoning to the equally imposing ...

Mechatronics hardware design and architecture unites mechanical structures with electronic control and embedded intelligence to create adaptive, high-performance systems. At its core lies ...

Moore's law is well known in the electronics industry. It states that the number of transistors roughly doubles every two years. Since 1965 Moore's law has proven to be true, with digital electronics ...

A technical paper titled “Hardware-Software Co-design for Side-Channel Protected Neural Network Inference” was published (preprint) by researchers at North Carolina State University and Intel.
