• February 13, 2025 - Addressing Tomorrow's Automotive Compute Needs
  We will explore the transformation towards software-defined vehicles. We will delve into the unification of compute solutions for central processing, zonal architectures, in-cabin sensing, and digital cockpits. With AI/ML enhancing vehicle functionalities, cars are evolving into mobile devices, particularly as we move towards autonomous driving with the integration of numerous sensors like vision, radar, and lidar. This shift demands high-performance compute and interface IP. Previously, sensing was managed by separate processors, but now there's a need for integrated processors and specialized SoCs for infotainment, supporting multi-channel audio and voice input. AI is becoming pivotal for radar and sensor fusion, and this presentation will highlight how Tensilica's compute (DSPs, accelerators) and interface IP (PCIe, MIPI) are meeting these emerging automotive requirements.
• February 27, 2025 - The Impact on the Automotive Market as Chips Transform Into 3D Systems
  We will explore the technological renaissance within the automotive industry. We are on the brink of an era where vehicles transcend their role as mere transportation tools, becoming interconnected nodes in a vast software-defined mobility network. Central to this evolution is the innovative use of chiplets—miniaturized, modular components that can be combined and scaled to form sophisticated electronic systems. In a significant move to propel the automotive chiplet ecosystem forward, Cadence and Arm have collaborated to drastically reduce development times, spur product innovation, and usher in a new collaborative era. This partnership not only meets today's automotive demands but also paves the way for future mobility solutions. It will offer an in-depth look at how EDA tools and methodologies have advanced to tackle the unique challenges posed by chiplet and multi-die package architectures.
