  • Going Vertical: a New Integration Era in the Semiconductor Industry Table of Contents
    Going vertical: A new integration era in the semiconductor industry Table of contents 01 Executive overview Integration in the 02 semiconductor industry Strategic options for 03 semiconductor companies Moving forward: what semiconductor 04 companies must consider today Going vertical: A new integration era in the semiconductor industry 2 Executive overview Like many industries, the semiconductor industry is not immune to waves of diversification and consolidation through inorganic and organic growth. While inflection points with large-scale systemic changes in the value chain are relatively rare, our perspective is that there is a systemic change currently trending in the industry. Since the inception of the industry, semiconductor companies have recognized the value of technology. Accordingly, the market has rewarded semiconductor companies for specializing in distinct parts of the value chain by developing technological advantages by investing in R&D and by scaling technology through horizontal integration. This way of working transformed an industry that was initially vertically integrated (semiconductor design, semiconductor manufacturing, and system integration) into an ecosystem focused on specific areas of design, manufacturing, and/or systems. In the past five years, business value in some segments has moved from underlying technology to specific use cases to better monetize end-customer data and experience. • 5G, automotive, AI, cloud, system integration and hardware-software integration System integrators and software and cloud platform companies are no longer just important customers for the semiconductor industry—they are directly expanding into multiple upstream areas. • Taking advantage of silicon and system design • Control more of the technology stack • Optimize system performance • Improve the customer experience This vertical integration trend is distinctly different from the vertical integration which occurred at the inception of the semiconductor and integrated device manufacturing industry more than 50 years ago.

  • The Specter of Species Extinction Will Global Warming Decimate Earth’S Biosphere?
    The Specter of Species Extinction Will Global Warming Decimate Earth’s Biosphere? Sherwood B. Idso, Craig D. Idso and Keith E. Idso The Marshall Institute — Science for Better Public Policy The George C. Marshall Institute The George C. Marshall Institute, a nonprofit research group founded in 1984, is dedicated to fostering and preserving the integrity of science in the policy process. The Institute conducts technical assessments of scientific developments with a major impact on public policy and communicates the results of its analyses to the press, Congress and the public in clear, readily understandable language. The Institute differs from other think tanks in its exclusive focus on areas of scientific importance, as well as a Board whose composition reflects a high level of scientific credibility and technical expertise. Its emphasis is public policy and national security issues primarily involving the physical sciences, in particular the areas of missile defense and global climate change. Center for the Study of Carbon Dioxide and Global Change The Center for the Study of Carbon Dioxide and Global Change is a non-profit science education organization created for the purpose of disseminating factual reports and sound commentary on new developments in the scientific quest to determine the climatic and biological consequences of the ongoing rise in the air’s CO2 content. It primarily meets this objective through the publication of CO2 Science Magazine, a free online Internet publication that contains editorials on topics of current concern and mini-reviews of recently published peer-reviewed scientific journal articles, books and other educational materials. In addition, the Center periodically publishes major reports on pressing scientific issues, such as the topic of this report.

K: vinsky, Dean ofGradua 111 ABSTRACT The intent ofthis project is to provide an educational resource from which future students can learn the basics ofprogrammable logic and the design process involved. More specifically, the area ofinterest involves very large scale integration (VLSI) design and the advantages associated with it such as reduced chip count and development time. The methodology used within is to first implement a design; using small and medium scale integration (SSI/MSI) packages in order to have a baseline for comparison. The design is then translated for use with the very high speed integrated circuit hardware description language (VHDL) and implemented onto a complex programmable logic device (CPLD). A discussion ofthis implementation process as well as VHDL lessons is provided to serve as a tutorial for the interested reader.

Programmable logic devices were invented in the late 1970s and have since proved to be very popular, now one of the largest growing sectors in the semi- conductor industry. Why are programmable logic devices so widely used? Besides offering designers ultimate flexibility, programmable logic devices also provide a time-to-market advantage and design integration.
