A “simulation booster” for nanoelectronics
Two research groups from ETH Zurich have developed a method that can simulate nanoelectronics devices and their properties realistically, quickly and efficiently. This offers a ray of hope for the industry and data centre operators alike, both of which are struggling with the (over)heating that comes with increasingly small and powerful transistors.
“A booting computer is as vulnerable as a newborn baby”
Hackers are increasingly exploiting weaknesses in IT system hardware rather than software. To close this gap, we are introducing a new open source project based on Google’s Titan security technology and the “Ibex” open source processor from ETH. Luca Benini, Professor at the Institute for Integrated Systems, explains how.
