Ekioh launches the world’s first multithreaded embedded browser

Cambridge, UK, 1st May 2018, Ekioh today unveiled Flow, a multithreaded HTML browser specifically designed for multi-core processors that delivers a vastly improved user experience. Flow’s layout and animation performance is more than double the speed of other browsers on multi-core silicon. This makes it perfect for powering the user interface (UI) on resource-constrained embedded consumer electronics, automotive and industrial systems.</ … Read More → "Ekioh launches the world’s first multithreaded embedded browser"

Silicon Valley Startup Set to Disrupt Global Semiconductor Market

FREMONT, Calif. – April 30, 2018 — Spin Transfer Technologies, Inc., the leading magnetic memory (MRAM) company, today announced its proprietary Precessional Spin Current (PSC™) structure results. The PSC structure is a breakthrough technology with universal application that can enhance the performance of anyone’s MRAM array by increasing the retention while simultaneously reducing current.

This invention has the potential to enhance MRAM’s already-impressive density and zero leakage capabilities, making it a compelling replacement candidate for both embedded (on-chip) Static Random-Access Memory (SRAM) used in over $100 billion of semiconductor end-products, and for the $20 … Read More → "Silicon Valley Startup Set to Disrupt Global Semiconductor Market"
