Dice, in their standard six-sided form, seem like the simplest kind of device—almost a classic embodiment of chance. But a new study of more than 100 examples from the last 2,000 years or so unearthed in the Netherlands shows that they have not always looked exactly the way they do now. What’s more, the shifts in dice’s appearance may reflect people’s changing sense of what exactly is behind a roll—fate, or probability. Continue reading at the Atlantic
 Computational Software: 4 Ways It is Transforming System Design & Hardware DesignSponsored by BestTech Views Cadence President Anirudh Devgan shares his detailed insights on Computational Software. Anirudh provides a clear definition of computational software, and four specific ways computational software is transforming system design & hardware design -- including highly distributed compute, reduced memory footprints, co-optimization, and machine learning applications.
