This is the third and final article in a series about silicon validation. Part 1 described the silicon validation problem and the basic requirements of an effective and scalable solution. Part 2 ...

The proliferation and expansion of multicore architectures is making debug much more difficult and time-consuming, which in turn is increasing demand for more comprehensive system-level tools and ...

Modern trace and debugging techniques. IDEs to use for trace and debugging. In computer programming and software development, engineers will deploy debugging tools and processes to find and mitigate ...

Debugging embedded designs is becoming increasingly difficult as the number of observed and possible interactions between hardware and software continue to grow, and as more features are crammed into ...

The complexity associated with the development of embedded systems is increasing rapidly. For instance, it is estimated that the average complexity of software projects in the automotive industry has ...

Anyone involved with software development will have most likely heard (and perhaps even said) the phrase ‘it’s not a bug, it’s a feature’ at some point, and while its origins remain a mystery, its ...

The world of System-on-Chips (SoCs) is evolving - with the advancement of generative AI, the increasing demand for high-performance compute, and the innovative shift towards multi-chiplet ...

Symbolic execution is a powerful software-analysis tool that can be used to automatically locate and even repair programming bugs. Essentially, it traces out every path that a program's execution ...

Programmable system-on-chip (PSoC) architectures such as the Cypress PSoC family of MCUs integrate a wide range of capabilities, including MCU cores like the Cortex-M0, programmable analog blocks (PAB ...

At this point, 8 years after Google put a spotlight on self-driving technology, there are over 2 dozens somewhat serious companies with autonomous driving programs at different stages of development.
