Debbie Greenstreet

The donkey and the elephant are usually the animal icons that one typically associates with the politics centered in Washington, D.C., so why is this story about COWs?

Blog Post: Embodied Multicore Processing

Ralf Bendlin

The recent birth of my son left me remembering a talk from almost ten years ago. It’s interesting how our brain works. By watching my newborn son learn to turn reflexes into controlled motions, I’m realizing how complicated the most ordinary actions really are. One of his first milestones...

Ralf Bendlin

This is the first of a two - part excursion into the realm of philosophy as it relates to “cells.” Don’t worry, I’ll leave the important questions like “w hat is enlightenment?” to Emmanuel Kant and his successors. But since the evolution of LTE to LTE Advanced (LTE...

Blog Post: 12 months, 12 applications! Are you ready for more MULTICORE?

Mark Nadeski

A little over a month ago, we asked you what you would like to see covered in our Multicore Mix blog. One person mentioned that it would be good to see where multicore DSPs can be used outside the wireless base station infrastructure market. I think that’s a great idea! But, we don’t want...

Ralf Bendlin

I recently had to switch offices and the colleague whose office space I inherited left me a gift: a poster from when TI unveiled the industry’s first 10 GHz DSP. “A perfect 10!” it reads, maybe alluding to the highest score an Olympic athlete can obtain in some gymnastic disciplines...

Blog Post: Multi-tasking with TI’s KeyStone embedded multicore
