Enterprises are adopting Amazon Web Services (AWS) to meet the constantly growing compute demands in HPC. Worldwide HPC in the Cloud Forecast 2020–2026 from Hyperion Research (June 2022) […]

Introduction Semiconductor manufacturing has become incredibly complex and the effort it takes to get electronics in front of the end customer at a reasonable price point is very challenging. This coupled with the chip shortage, and the cost and time to build fabs to increase capacity, has led to companies focusing on improving productivity. A […]

Introduction This blog will help you understand how you can utilize Amazon EC2 X2iezn instances to expedite the semiconductor physical verification process using Calibre Physical Verification tools from Siemens EDA. As semiconductor devices increase in density and complexity, the physical verification phase of the chip design process requires compute nodes with increasingly high memory-to-core ratio, […]

Introduction The Semiconductor Industry is working to establish Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance (ESG) standards with the help of science-based targets. According to the Science Based Targets (SBT) Initiative (SBTi), “SBTs provide a clearly defined pathway for companies to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, helping prevent the worst impacts of climate change and future-proof business […]

Introduction Electronic Design Automation (EDA) workloads have traditionally run on-premises on a combination of latest and older generation compute servers. The performance penalty of running Electronic Design Automation (EDA) on older generation hardware is often neglected in discussions and Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) models. With EDA license costs greatly exceeding IT spend in silicon […]

In our final episode during cybersecurity awareness month, we turn our discussion with Robert to examine the myths and misunderstandings surrounding industrial IoT systems that persist throughout the manufacturing industry. Robert tells us “A lot of the myths that are out there with regards to industrial IoT systems, unfortunately, misdirect us. They make us think […]
