Battlefield Ahead: How Direct RF Will Shape the Future of Electronic Warfare

This week’s Fish Fry podcast is all about direct RF, the critical needs for electronic warfare today, and the world’s first liquid hydrogen flight. My guest Rodger Hosking (Mercury Systems) and I discuss the benefits and tradeoffs of direct RF and why Rodger believes that direct RF can revolutionize Military EW and radar systems. Also this … Read More → "Battlefield Ahead: How Direct RF Will Shape the Future of Electronic Warfare"

Doing the Time Warp with Calibre DesignEnhancer

When I worked on my first ASIC deep in the mists of time that we used to call the 1980s, we employed a traditional “waterfall” model for our design and verification flows. In this case, any activities associated with the project were broken down into linear sequential phases, where each phase depended on the deliverables from the previous one.

Where Rubber Meets The Road: Simulation, AI Modeling, and The Future of the Automotive Industry

This week’s Fish Fry podcast is all about AI modeling for automotive applications.  Seth DeLand (MathWorks) and I discuss the common challenges that automotive engineers face when implementing simulation into AI modeling, which automotive applications would benefit most from simulation, and why data preparation is a crucial step in the AI workflow during model-based design for automotive … Read More → "Where Rubber Meets The Road: Simulation, AI Modeling, and The Future of the Automotive Industry"

Are These the Top-Performing Edge AI Processors?

I fear I am becoming befuddled, bewildered, and bemused. It seems like every day I get to chat with a new company (well, a company new to me) that’s involved with artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in some capacity or other. Some of these companies focus on the cloud, while others target the edge. Some devote themselves to the software side of things, … Read More → "Are These the Top-Performing Edge AI Processors?"
