Amelia's Weekly Fish Fry

How about an automotive themed Fish Fry podcast to start your Friday? My guest this week is Sandeep Krishnego from Infineon and we are investigating the world’s first LPDDR flash memory. We investigate the benefits of this new memory solution and how it will drive innovation in the next generation of automotive designs. Also this week, I check out a hidden culprit found in automotive emissions. (Spoiler Alert: it's not coming out of the tailpipe.)

Physically aware network-on-chips take center stage in this week’s Fish Fry podcast! Andy Nightingale from Arteris and I investigate the role that network-on-chips have played in the development of SoC designs. We also discuss the details of Arteris' FlexNoC 5 Physically Aware Network-on-Chip IP, and how a physically aware NoC can not only help you address your PPA goals but also get you to physical convergence faster. Also this week, I investigate a newly discovered exoplanet called LP 791-18d. 

In this week’s Fish Fry podcast, I investigate how you can shorten your development time and accelerate code across heterogeneous compute platforms with CacheQ Systems CEO Clay Johnson. Clay and I explore the benefits of heterogeneous compute development, the details of CacheQ’s QCC development platform and what sets CacheQ’s QCC development platform apart from open-source tools.

What do intelligent modularity, parametric design for reuse and reconfiguration in rugged system development, and robots inspired by jellyfish have in common? This week’s Fish Fry podcast! Bill Pilaud (LCR Embedded Systems) and I discuss how intelligent modularity can make chassis design more efficient, how parametric design can enable reuse and reconfiguration in rugged system development, and how these approaches reflect a holistic approach for military and aerospace design. Also this week, I check out a new robotic jellyfish developed by a team of researchers at the Max Planck Institute For Intelligent Systems that can clean up ocean debris without any contact. 

 

In this week’s Fish Fry podcast, my distinguished guest is RISC-V CTO Mark Himelstein. Mark and I chat about the history of RISC-V, why RISC-V is more popular than ever before, the benefits that RiSC-V can bring to high performance computing, and how you can take advantage of the RISC-V Exchange. Also this week, I investigate a new incredible edible battery developed by the Italian Institute of Technology.

“The Internet of Things devoid of comprehensive security management is tantamount to Internet of Threats” -Stephane Nappo

This week my distinguished guest is Pim Tuyls, CEO and Founder of Intrinsic ID! Pim and I investigate today’s biggest security trends, the details of Intrinsic ID’s new software-only solution called Zign, and why Pim thinks that US Cybersecurity Chip Act isn’t quite enough when it comes to legislation in the security arena.

The man, the myth, the legend Giovanni De Micheli (Nanni) joins me this week! Recently honored with the 2022 Phil Kaufman Award for Distinguished Contributions to Electronic System Design, Nanni has been a powerhouse in the world of EDA for a very long time. His work has expanded the fields of Network-on-Chip (NoC), high-level synthesis, and logic synthesis. In this episode, Nanni and I talk through what excites him about EDA today, what he thinks the next big innovation in EDA will be, and what he considers to be his greatest accomplishment so far. Also this week, I investigate new biosensor technology developed at the University of Technology Sydney that will allow you to operate devices using only thought control.

In this week's military and aerospace themed Fish Fry podcast, longtime friend of the show Nigel Forrester and I investigate the role of timing in SOSA (Sensor Open Systems Architecture) systems. We also discuss the benefits of assured positioning, navigation, and timing (A-PNT) for military applications, and why spoofing and jamming are critical challenges to solve in this domain. Also this week, I check out the details of a new Star Wars-esque hybrid, autonomous, military UAV developed by BAE Systems that can fold its wings and fit into a shipping container.  

This week’s podcast features my discussion with Semir Haddad from MicoEJ. Semir and I discuss the biggest influences in embedded system development today, the roles servitization, containerization, and sustainability will play for future embedded system development, and how MicroEJ is furthering innovation in the world of smart things! Also this week, I investigate a new graphene-based e-tattoo that can determine your stress levels developed by a team of researchers at Texas A&M University and The University of Texas at Austin.

I’m serving up a meaty podcast for your listening pleasure this week! My guest Josh Rensch (2023 U.S. DVCon program chair) gives us a sneak peak into this year’s Design and Verification Conference and Exhibition. Josh and I also discuss the details of this year’s DVCon keynote address, who should attend this conference, and how he got involved making custom bacon. Also this week, I investigate how a team of scientists at the University of California San Francisco were able to use artificial intelligence to create original proteins from scratch.
