Tape-out Risk in the Age of Edge AI: The Case for GPU IP

A full SoC tape-out at 5nm approaches $400M in fully loaded, non-recurring engineering and mask costs. At 3nm, estimates push past $600M. Every IP block on that die is a commitment to a set of assumptions about what the silicon will need to do. In AI, those assumptions have a shorter shelf life than they used to.

What Does a GPU Have to Do With Automotive Security?

The automotive industry is undergoing the most significant transformation since the advent of electronics in cars. Vehicles are becoming software-defined, connected, AI-driven, and continuously updated. This evolution brings extraordinary new capability – but it also brings greater levels of cybersecurity and functional-safety risks.

How Alternate Geometry Processing Enables Better Multi-Core GPU Scaling

Scaling GPU performance across multiple cores sounds simple in theory: add more cores, get more performance. In practice, it’s one of the toughest challenges in graphics architecture. While some workloads scale well thanks to their independent nature, some workloads, especially geometry processing, introduce order dependencies that make linear performance scaling a tricky problem to solve for every GPU architecture in the industry.
