When engineers at Sumitomo Riko needed to speed up the design cycle for automotive rubber and polymer components, they turned to AI models trained not just on data but on the fundamental equations of ...

To simulate the Earth, he suggests that it would be necessary to convert the entire stellar mass of a globular cluster into ...

A physicist has mounted one of the most detailed technical challenges yet against the idea that our universe is a computer simulation, arguing that the energy required to run such a program would ...

The introduction of full 3D-ICs will require a simultaneous analysis of various physical effects under different workloads, a step-function change that will add complexity at every step of the design ...

Smarajit Triambak receives funding from the National Research Foundation, South Africa. As a physicist, I am trained to look for patterns in data. For example, the motion of the tiniest particles may ...

The number of nuts on pistachio trees in any given year could be explained with a model from statistical physics that is normally used to study magnetic materials. That is according to researchers led ...

Synopsys has made another quiet acquisition, this time in the TCAD space. Gold Standard Simulations (GSS) offers a suite of solutions for design technology co-optimization (DTCO), PDK development and ...

So I have been thinking about the design environment for analog designers and the challenges that plague mixed signal design engineers in the new technology space as we design on process nodes that ...
