The traditional approach of running generic software on x86-based CPUs is running out of steam for many applications due to the slowdown of Moore’s Law and the concurrent exponential growth in ...

“Emerging applications such as deep neural network demand high off-chip memory bandwidth. However, under stringent physical constraints of chip packages and system boards, it becomes very expensive to ...

The last two articles have explored the five steps to designing an embedded software architecture. So far, we have seen a need in modern embedded systems to separate software architecture into ...

Most computer problems are easily traced to either hardware or software errors. However, it isn't always obvious why your computer won't work, and establishing where the problem lies can often be ...

Take a tour inside of your desktop PC to learn how all the hardware in a traditional desktop PC connects to create a complete computer system like the one you may be using right now. Here are some ...

Nearly everything we touch each day – from coffee machines to cars, smartphones, and wearable devices – is powered by computing systems designed and built by computer engineers. Computer engineering ...

The complex and demanding railway transportation sector requires computer hardware and software that is secure, durable and offers high performance. Many of the currently evolving technologies in the ...

Unlike box instruments, modular instruments connect directly to I/O buses such as PCIe. Thus, they don't use SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments) commands the way ...

Mechatronics hardware design and architecture represents a confluence of mechanical, electronic, and computational disciplines aimed at creating integrated, reliable and intelligent systems.
