Top 10 semiconductor companies ranked by R&D spending
IC Insights has released their 2013 ranking of semiconductor companies by R&D spending. Intel continued to top the list, accounting for 37% of the top-10 spending and 19% of total worldwide semiconductor R&D expenditures. Intel’s R&D spending was more than triple that of second-place Qualcomm.
Internet of Things or Internet of Everything?
The Internet of Things is dead. It should be the Internet of Everything. No, wait - what does that really mean? Regardless of the hype, the Internet of Things (or whatever you may prefer to call it) will provide significant value to business and consumers, provided suppliers can address real problems.
Proposal aims to standardise a graph-based test specification
A proposal to form a newAccellera standards committee, toinvestigate the standardisation of a graph-based test specification standard, has been made by Mentor Graphics.To underscore this endeavor, Mentor will make a technical donation of its existing graph-based test specification format to jump-start the standardization effort.
