Software-to-silicon verification @ 45 nm and beyond Jul 14, 2009
Efficiency and performanceChips have become almost unimaginably complex, with dozens of interacting embedded processor cores, accelerators, complex on-chip buses and high-speed external interfaces. This underlying chip complexity poses a major problem for system developers regarding how to sufficiently exercise the effectively infinite state space within a reasonable time, to find bugs that will cause costly respins or potentially kill their chips.

Netgear Looks to Rack Up Small Business Storage May 13, 2009
Drew Meyer, director of SMB storage at Netgear, said the ReadyNAS 2100, is two times faster the previous version of the product (the ReadyNAS 1100) thanks largely to the use of an Intel storage-specific embedded processor, which results in 70MB/s read/write performance. The most interesting aspect of Netgear's announcement is what Meyer describes as a drag-and-drop interface for remote access. (SmallBusinessComputing)
