EE Times Current EE Times On Air

This week’s EE Times Current features three exclusive interviews recently conducted by embedded.com’s editor-in-chief, Nitin Dahad at Embedded World 2024 in Nuremberg. Nitin discussed topics including AI inferencing, Software Ecosystems and Trends in Industrial Automation. 

In this episode, Dr. Sunny Bains (https://www.sunnybains.com/) talks with Professor Christian Mayr (https://tu-dresden.de/ing/elektrotechnik/iee/hpsn/die-professur/inhaber?set_language=en) from the Technical University of Dresden, who worked on SpiNNaker with Steve Furber for many years. He is taking that project into the future with SpiNNaker 2, which is mostly built, SpiNNaker 3, which is his next design project, and the startup SpiNNcloud (https://spinncloud.com/). Discussion follows with Dr. Giulia D’Angelo (https://www.linkedin.com/in/giuliadangelo/) Marie Curie Fellow at The Czech Technical University in Prague, and Professor Ralph Etienne-Cummings (https://engineering.jhu.edu/faculty/ralph-etienne-cummings/) of Johns Hopkins University.

Dr. Elisa Donati of the Institute of Neuroinformatics in Zurich talks to Dr. Sunny Bains (https://www.sunnybains.com/) about neuromorphic circuits for prosthetics, drug delivery and more. Discussion follows with Dr. Giulia D’Angelo (https://www.linkedin.com/in/giuliadangelo/) from the Fortiss research institute in Munich, and Professor Ralph Etienne-Cummings (https://engineering.jhu.edu/faculty/ralph-etienne-cummings/) of Johns Hopkins University.

In this episode, Dr. Sunny Bains (https://www.sunnybains.com/) discusses neuromorphic chips with Dr. Amirreza Yousefzadeh (https://people.utwente.nl/a.yousefzadeh), who has most recently worked at imec and the University of Twente. Discussion follows with Dr. Giulia D’Angelo (https://www.linkedin.com/in/giuliadangelo/) from the Fortiss research institute in Munich, and Professor Ralph Etienne-Cummings (https://engineering.jhu.edu/faculty/ralph-etienne-cummings/) of Johns Hopkins University.

Join us in lasteset episode of EETimes Current as we delve into the transformative potential of 1.6 Terabit Ethernet (1.6TbE) alongside the pivotal role played by advanced 224G SerDes and emerging linear optical interfaces. Discover how this convergence optimizes area, power, and latency, enabling efficient processing of large language models and unstructured data with memory pooling and cache coherence. From mitigating datapath bottlenecks to unlocking new frontiers in compute throughput, we dissect the significance of next generation electro optical interfaces with 1.6T Ethernet in shaping the future of computing infrastructures.

In this episode, Professor Shih-Chii Liu (https://sensors.ini.ch/people/shih-chii-liu), co-director of the Sensors Group at the Institute of Neuroinformatics (INI)—part of both the ETH and the University of Zurich, Switzerland—talks to Brains and Machines host, Dr. Sunny Bains (https://www.sunnybains.com/), about neuromorphic cochlea, sparsity and deep networks, and what it will take for the technology to solve real problems in industry. Discussion follows with Dr. Giulia D’Angelo (https://www.linkedin.com/in/giuliadangelo/) from the Fortiss research institute in Munich, and Professor Ralph Etienne-Cummings (https://engineering.jhu.edu/faculty/ralph-etienne-cummings/) of Johns Hopkins University.
