Glass sculptures that look like knitted yarn

tumblr_ndh5i5Cgs41qccpz7o4_1280.jpg

Artist Carol Milne creates remarkable glass sculptures that look like knitted yarn. She achieves the effect by knitting with pliable wax, which she then turns into a heat resistant mold. She pours molten glass into the mold to create the final sculpture. The process is described in detail in Carol Milne Knitted Glass: How Does She Do That? by Steve Isaacson. Milne’s work is part of the ongoing exhibition “Reaching Beyond: The Northwest Designer Craftsmen at 60″ at the Whatcom Museum in Bellingham, Washington through January 4, 2015.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
