Of ALL the markets that have evolved; PCs, SMartphones, the IoT will be the one that resonates with me best. Lets all go to this go to conference.....and listen to Dr SAxe and the rest of that panel....

#54DAC 7: IoT: Tales from the Frontline
We hear from media outlets that Internet of Things (IoT) solutions will be soon be surrounding us in our homes, our offices, our schools; in factories and farms; working to make our life better, or perhaps working to eliminate our species! Well, 50+ years has taught us that any new technology happens first at DAC,
QUIK will B there! Short of amazing? I am grateful
and adding credence to the media’s predictions, you will see IoT technology information and insights everywhere the 54th Design Automation Conference.
There is not some new job title of "IoT engineer." Instead our familiar, experienced analog, mixed-signal engineers, RF engineers, server architects and mobile developers and verification teams are applying our tools and their skills in this new application area. Since IoT design elements touch most EDA engineering disciplines, we’ve made it easier for DAC attendees to learn what they need to know about IoT trends and technology wherever they are at the Austin Convention Center. Here’s a sampling of IoT-related presentations that can be found in keynotes, SKY Talks, fireside chats, DAC Pavilion sessions and tutorials:
Keynotes, panels and more
This year we’re offering attendees a front-row seat to the front lines of IoT innovation. For starters, check out legendary EDA executive Joe Costello’s event-opening keynote. Costello, now CEO of Enlighted, a Silicon Valley IoT startup, will discuss how we are giving buildings "consciousness" and what that means for companies, employees and society. (Monday, 9:15 a.m.)
Another must-see IoT keynote is on Wednesday when Tyson Tuttle, CEO of Silicon Labs, will consider the market imperatives and engineering challenges of adding connectivity to electronic devices, including cost, ease of use, energy efficiency, interoperability, future extensibility and security.
Rounding out an impressive lineup of IoT-themed keynotes this year will be Rosalind Picard, founder and director of the Affective Computing Research Group at the MIT Media Laboratory (Thursday 9:10 a.m.). She’ll describe how we’re designing in emotional intelligence into devices more in the future and what that means not only for design and device functionality but the broader societal implications.
Westworld here we come.
The elephant in the IoT room these days is security--specifically who’s responsible for security when and how. If this is a burning issue for you, you won’t want to miss our panel Tuesday at 3:30 p.m. Representatives from Trustonic, the Technische University of Berlin and Tozny LLC will discuss the real-world impact of available security hardware, the related shortcomings as well as new research and development directions in hardware-assisted security and privacy solutions.
A new feature this year at DAC is the FPGA IoT Design Contest, sponsored by ACM SIGDA and Lattice Semiconductor,
Consider Lattice is vulnerable, Why?
THey sell a LOT of discrete FPGA...when Tier 1's put FPGA onto their SoC/ASICs will they need Lattice?
I will look for video of some of these DAC conferences and put up any I find for serious vicarious GEEKS like me/.
which is underway now. Five final design contestants will be highlighted at DAC in the World of IoT exhibit, and the top three design winners will be announced at the conference in the DAC Pavilion Wednesday June 22 at 3 p.m.
But wait, there’s more! You can find many additional IoT learning opportunities on the DAC website in a couple of ways. First, navigate to the DAC Program landing page and filter your search on the left-hand navigation bar with IoT under Tracks. A second way is to head to our IoT landing page and browse the choices there. Advance Registration for DAC is available now till May 30, which gives you a 25% savings on a full conference badge.
And remember: DAC provides free parking at the Austin Convention Center and all DAC badges include complementary evening social receptions!
For the casual reader....
In June of '16 Mediateks head of IoT said the following...
JC Hsu, corporate vice president and general manager of IoT Business Development at MediaTek, said. "We will keep building comprehensive IoT solutions and drive the industry moving forwards as a technology enabler."
IoT market is characterized by full diversity, small volume, multiple standards, security, and service-oriented vertical applications. Because of different functionality, specifications, and services, the turnkey solutions that used to be successful in mobile phone market can no longer fit. It challenges not only device makers' design and manufacturing ability, but also chip vendors' to provide total solutions."
eFPGA- 22nmFDX- would be great for them going forward....
The limitations of what to use eFPGA for were real for QUIK. THe common refrain of jfieb, " what does that have to do with QUIK"?, goes away now. For example IF someone wants to try Inference on the edge on an FPGA, just like they do in the coud.....no reason NOT to?
