New Pareon tool from Vector Fabrics smooths multicore software optimization

June 1, 2012

Eindhoven, June 1st, 2012 — Vector Fabrics, a company that specializes in programming tools to optimize software for multicore architectures, today announced the launch of its new development tool, PareonTM.

Pareon allows software developers to optimize their applications for multicore systems in hours or days, a task that typically takes weeks or months to complete. The tool’s analysis engine prevents hard-to-find and hard-to-reproduce threading bugs, while its hardware modelling engine prevents the developer from writing code that introduces performance bottlenecks or even causes slowdowns. Pareon helps developers address the consumer’s demand for fast, high-quality, … Read More → "New Pareon tool from Vector Fabrics smooths multicore software optimization"

Analog Bits Unveils Integrated Sensor Macro Family

June 1, 2012

Mountain View, CA, May 31, 2012 – Analog Bits, the Integrated Clocking and Interface IP leader, today announced the immediate availability of a fully integrated Sensor macro product line to monitor both on-chip temperature variation and voltage supply.

Temperature variation is a particularly acute problem below 65nm process lithography as increased power density and ever-thinning wires induce electro-migration, product life, and reliability issues to the point of potentially causing system-on-chip (SoC) field failures.

Large die are especially susceptible to temperature and voltage variation, often requiring close, careful monitoring. Sensor IP enables SoCs to not only … Read More → "Analog Bits Unveils Integrated Sensor Macro Family"
