It’s National Cybersecurity Awareness Month!  In 2003, the National Cybersecurity Alliance and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security designated October as Cybersecurity Awareness Month. To recognize this annual tradition, join AWS for a 4-part mini-series highlighting the different ways cybersecurity impacts your industrial landscape, especially since, as Caroline points out, “Over the pandemic, cyber events […]

Consumers play a crucial role in healthcare cost management, but they must have relevant information in order to produce the market forces needed to achieve reduced healthcare prices. The Transparency in Coverage (TCR) rule requires health insurers (payors) and hospitals disclose their pricing agreements. This empowers consumers to shop and compare costs between specific providers before receiving […]

Shift left – a path to faster and better SOC quality A revolution is happening in the chip design industry. A revolution that allows projects to finish earlier, with fewer bugs, while budget stays in control. In this article, I’ll share my personal view on a few related bottlenecks that directly affect time to market […]

Introduction AWS can help Semiconductor companies with their value chain transformation by migrating the entire PLM-CAD-ERP workflow to the cloud while mitigating resource and performance risks. Data ingested from SAP into AWS-powered data lakes and Amazon SageMaker for machine learning is used for predictive analytics and simulation of various scenarios. For example, to address supply […]

Introduction Silicon designers are creating increasingly complex designs to address ever-increasing demand from customers. Increased complexity poses challenges to electronic design automation (EDA) applications that help with manufacturability and functionality of the designs on silicon. Physical verification is an integral part of the silicon design system that identifies design layout issues prior to its production […]

Introduction Designing semiconductor requires High Performance Computing (HPC) to run Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools. These workloads vary over time in both the amount and type of compute resources required. This makes it an ideal workload for the elasticity of the cloud. Customers choose optimal instance types to optimize each tools runtime. This reduces time-to-results […]

Data is the key enabler to digital transformation and Industry 4.0. Manufacturers can use data to realize a single view of operations and derive operational insights. These insights can be used to improve production quality, make real-time prediction, and generate cost savings. Big Data analytics techniques can provide new capabilities related to measuring performance, maintenance, […]

Introduction Hot work is defined as any operation that could be an origin of ignition in an environment with flammable materials. According to the U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board (CSB), hot work is one of the most common causes of worker death. It is also leading cause of industrial fires. A hot work […]

University faculty members and non-profit organizations looking to improve the training experience for the next generation of microelectronics engineers face multiple challenges with the computing environment required, both technical and organizational. In this blog we will review these challenges, and how to solve them using ready-made solutions on AWS and how these solutions can scale […]
