I’ve said this before, and I’ll doubtless say it again—after I’d graduated from Sheffield Polytechnic with my degree in Control Engineering, my first position was as a member of a team designing CPUs for mainframe computers.
As an aside (this one came sooner than any of us were expecting), Sheffield Polytechnic is now known as Sheffield Hallam University. Meanwhile, “ … Read More → "FPGA-Based Prototyping Like You Wouldn’t Believe"
This week my special guest is imec Scientific Director Axel Nackaerts! Axel and I chat about why hardware innovation will be crucial to the future of artificial intelligence application development. We also chat about the biggest challenges for the next generation of AI applications and how imec is furthering flexibility in hardware innovation for artificial intelligence designs.

As usual, my poor old noggin is spinning like a top. I’ve just learned more than I ever wanted to know about the problems with the existing PC/104 and VITA 74 (VNX) standards, along with the advantages promised by the recent introduction of the VITA 90 (VNX+) offering.
Before we plunge into the fray with gusto and abandon (and aplomb, of course), let’s … Read More → "Migrating SWaP-C-Constrained Aerospace & Defense Apps to VNX+"
I’m always impressed by engineers who possess the ability to identify a market need and then create a tailored solution that elegantly addresses the situation. I’m not that sort of engineer (it’s a wise man who knows his own limitations).
In my case, I have the almost uncanny ability to misidentify a market need (to identify a non-need if you … Read More → "Meet the ManT1S: Computing, Comms, and Power Over Single Pair Ethernet"
Multi-Function Aperture Sensors take center stage in this week’s podcast! My guests are Jake Braegelmann and Ryan Jansen from New Wave Design. Jake, Ryan and I explore the benefits, challenges, and future of multi-function aperture sensors and what we should expect for the next generation of multi-function aperture architecture. Also this week, I check out how … Read More → "Multi-Function Aperture Sensors and the Future of Next Generation Defense Systems"
Well, hello there! You just caught me cogitating and ruminating over the fact that so many things that seem conceptually simple when you are first exposed to them turn out to have hidden depths of complexity when you consider them more closely.
Take Newtonian gravity, for example. In his Law of Universal Gravitation (1687), Isaac Newton proposed that every mass attracts every other mass … Read More → "Hardware-Agnostic Sensitivity-Aware Fully-Automated AI Model Optimization is a Game-Changer"
