Did you ever wonder why they (whoever “they” are) chose the prefix “tera” to mean trillion (as in 10^12, or 1,000,000,000,000)? Well, it’s because because this comes from the Greek word teras, meaning “monster” or “marvel.” Thus, “tera” was chosen to reflect the large size of a trillion, implying something vast and extraordinary, much like the way a monster or marvel would stand proud in the … Read More → "Bringing Innate Intelligence to Trillions of Devices"
AI-based anomaly detection takes center stage in this week’s Fish Fry podcast! My guest is Rachel Johnson from MathWorks and we explore how AI can work in tandem with engineers to reduce the incidence of defects and optimize maintenance schedules and the steps involved in designing and deploying an AI-based anomaly detection system; from conceptualization and data gathering to deployment and integration.

My poor old noggin is currently buzzing with ideas for things I could do with the new line of programmable devices that were recently introduced by the guys and gals at Texas Instruments.
As usual, of course, in addition to these new devices themselves, myriad ancillary thoughts are currently cavorting around my cranium.
Let’s start with Read More → "From Concept to Programmable Logic Prototype in Minutes"
There are obvious attractions to “computing at the speed of light” with photonics-based technology—not just the extremely high speed, although that’s important, of course, but also the extremely low power as compared to transistor-logic-based computational implementations.
I’ve been exposed to a few companies offering various flavors of optical computing solutions over the course of the past couple of years. Until … Read More → "A Bold New Twist on Optical Computing"
I’ve said it before, and I’ll doubtless say it again—I like a simple story that I can wrap (what I laughingly call) my mind around. Too many times have I received a briefing from some overly enthusiastic company spokes-wiffle-waffle-person—you know the kind, they talk quickly and wave their arms around a lot—only for us to arrive at the end of the presentation … Read More → "Streaming AI Development and Deployment at the Edge"
