Embedded Executive: Employing AI For Code Development | Perforce Software
Yesterday00:13:08Tap to summarizeShould you use AI to generate code? Or should it be limited to code review? From my research, it depends on who you ask. In this case, I asked Rod Cope, the Chief Technical Officer at Perforce Software. Rod has a great deal of experience in this space, and he was my guest on this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.
Transcribe →Embedded Executive: According To Its CEO, Altera Is Back | Altera
1w ago00:16:02Tap to summarizeThose of us who have been around the embedded space for a while are pretty familiar with Altera’s history in the programmable logic space. Without going through the details, it’s a fairly rocky past. The company now claims that we should put the past in the rearview mirror and focus not just on what the company is offering today, but what’s on its roadmap. They feel that the relationships they’ve made and the inroads they continue to make put them in the perfect position to provide the products its customers want and need. I wanted to hear this story right from the horse’s mouth, so I spoke to Altera’s President and CEO, Raghib Hussain, on this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.
Transcribe →Embedded Executive: Helping Arm Get Silicon to Market | Synopsys
2w ago00:19:21Tap to summarizeFor its full existence, Arm has primarily been an IP vendor. That has now changed. Arm will be producing silicon products, similar to many of its customers. Getting to that point required an assist from some of its partners, including Synopsys. To understand what an “assist” consists of and what the longer-term outlook looks like, I spoke to Frank Schirrmeister, the Executive Director of Product Management for System Solutions at Synopsys, on this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.
Transcribe →Embedded Executive: Understand Digital Transformation | NTX
3w ago00:15:31Tap to summarizeDigital transformation, particularly in industrial equipment, has the ability to change the landscape of design. Really? Do you even know what digital transformation is? It’s a term that Doug Cougle, the SVP of Operations and Business Development at NTX Embedded, used in a recent conversation. He said it with such conviction that I thought, “Maybe this is something I should learn more about.” I did, and I think you should as well, which is why I invited Doug to be a guest on this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.

Transcribe →Embedded Executive: Intelligent/Smart Computing Vs. AI | Infineon
4w ago00:11:52Tap to summarizeEnd devices are shipping with the AI box checked. In other words, OEMs are saying that their products are AI-enabled. But are they really, or is this just marketing spin? The first response is that it depends on how you define AI. The second is that some of the features being implemented really are doing so with AI, but there might be other (simpler?) ways to handle the same functions. To make this clearer, I spoke to Steve Tateosian, the Senior VP and GM for IoT, Consumer, and Industrial MCUs for Infineon Technologies, on this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.

Transcribe →Embedded Executive: “Autonomous” Goes Way Beyond Automobiles | Aptiv
Apr 2900:17:00Tap to summarizeAptiv makes a clear distinction between “intelligent mobility” and “autonomous drive.” It’s easy to see how the two terms can be used interchangeably, but Aptiv is applying the former to many platforms that are not automobiles. And because of the company’s experience in the automotive space, it can do so in a big way. To understand the difference between the two terms and the impact that Aptiv can have in this space, I spoke to Deepali Trehan, Aptiv’s Senior VP and Chief Product Officer, on this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.
