Amelia's Weekly Fish Fry

Better Tools and Faster Results: How Cadence is Redefining RTL Design

We are diving headfirst into the world of RTL design this week! Rob Knoth (Cadence Design Systems) and I chat about RTL design and implementation issues facing engineers today, the details of Cadence’s Joules RTL Design Studio and the role that artificial intelligence plays in this solution. Also this week, I check out the world's first human brain-scale neuromorphic supercomputer.

Making Embedded Systems Smarter: How ITTIA is Tackling the Challenges of Real Time Data Management

In this week’s Fish Fry podcast, ITTIA President Sasan Montaseri joins me to chat about the challenges of real-time data management, the best security practices when it comes to embedded IoT edge data management and how ITTIA can help you manage your embedded systems real-time data in a single database solution.

Embedded to the Future: Smaller, Faster, Denser

Longtime friend of the show Matt Burns joins me this week to discuss the future of embedded design. We investigate the role that PAM4 will play in this arena, the benefits that SoMs and CoMs bring to the embedded design ecosystem and why faster data rates and increased functionality will be driving forces in the future of embedded applications. 

 

Autonomous Driving in the Fast Lane: The Growing Need for an Architectural Redefinition of Computation Hardware

Autonomous driving takes center stage in this week's Fish Fry podcast! Steven Latré from imec and I are talking all about SWIR, lidar, mm-wave radar, sensor fusion, the growing need for architectural redefinition of computation hardware in autonomous driving and a whole lot more!

Where Rubber Meets The Road: Simulation, AI Modeling, and The Future of the Automotive Industry

This week’s Fish Fry podcast is all about AI modeling for automotive applications.  Seth DeLand (MathWorks) and I discuss the common challenges that automotive engineers face when implementing simulation into AI modeling, which automotive applications would benefit most from simulation, and why data preparation is a crucial step in the AI workflow during model-based design for automotive applications. 

Fostering Innovation with Open Source Initiatives

Open source is the name of the game this week! Arun Gupta from Intel and I investigate the many ways that open source initiatives can foster innovation. We also chat about Intel’s history in the open source community, the evolution of Intel’s open source strategy and the progressive open source initiatives Intel is working on right now. Also this week, I check out the details of an open source tool from MIT's Senseable City Lab that can help people measure air pollution cheaply from anywhere.

 

AI on the Rise: Artificial Intelligence for Low Code

Artificial intelligence takes center stage in this week’s Fish Fry podcast! My guest Johanna Pingel (MathWorks) and I examine the benefits of using artificial intelligence for low code, the best practices in this arena, what applications would be a good fit for AI for low code and the super cool stuff MathWorks is doing in this space. Also this week, I investigate a new realm of AI exploration in medical applications… can AI ask AI for a second opinion? 

Designing the Future: The Design Automation Conference Celebrates 60 Years!

In this week’s podcast, my guest is DAC60 Engineering Tracks Program Chair Ambar Sarkar. Ambar and I chat all about this year’s Design Automation Conference including the new aspects of this year’s exhibition and conference, the RISC-V zone, what you can expect from this year’s visionary talks and keynotes, and the details of the DAC60 Celebration Panel called Designing the Future. Also this week, I investigate how AI coupled with the of 233 different primate species could help us unlock the mysteries of disease-causing genetic mutations in humans.

 

Calling All Software Developers! How CacheQ is Accelerating Code Across Heterogeneous Compute Platforms

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.

EDA in the Fast Lane: How a New Generation of AI-Driven Verification is Changing Design Automation

This week’s Fish Fry podcast is all about AI-driven verification! Matt Graham (Cadence Design Systems) and I examine the what, why, and how of Cadence’s new Verisium AI-driven verification platform. We investigate applications included in this platform and why this platform is a huge shift away from single-run, single-engine algorithms to algorithms that leverage big data and AI across multiple runs of multiple engines throughout the SoC verification lifecycle.
