An Update on Fog Computing

June 6, 2019
WINSights Blog

By George T Hilliard Fog computing has been around for a while and its definition has deviated somewhat from its original definition, thanks to the latest available products and how much compute power is now available at the edge of the IoT. I wrote a blog on this topic a while back called Cloud, Fog… Read More »

Process Your Data at the Edge

May 2, 2019

By George T Hilliard In my last blog, we discussed the concept of workload consolidation, which I described as the ability to provide higher performance and more functions with less hardware in an embedded/industrial system. As the IoT moves more into that same industrial space, we now want to take on Edge computing. As always,… Read More »

AI and Machine Learning Beyond the Bleeding Edge

May 2, 2019
WINSights Blog

By George T Hilliard You already know that artificial intelligence (AI) is the “next big thing” in the tech world. Leading semiconductor and software companies are pushing the boundaries with high-performance AI algorithms and signal processing techniques that, they hope, will solve some of the most complex tasks ever presented to electronic devices. Most of… Read More »

By George T Hilliard Multicore processors have been around for quite some time, dating back about 15 years for the mainstream-type devices that are fairly common today. They started as dual cores then went to quad cores. Now, you can find microprocessors containing hundreds or even thousands of “processors cores” in the same piece of… Read More »

Some industries caught on to the need for security before others, like those in the mission-critical space and those that potentially protect lives or money. But widespread adoption has not occurred. And it seems like hacking has almost become a sport for the bad guys. As we move forward, the amount of critical data that’s… Read More »

In Part 1 of this two-part blog, COTS, Custom, or Something In-Between: Balancing Cost, Time to Market, and Value Add, we looked at the differences between commercial off-the-shelf (COTS), custom, and semi-custom designs. In other words, do I buy existing hardware, have the vendor design something that’s specific to my needs, or is there something in between?… Read More »

We’re just coming off Embedded World, the largest trade show on the planet for embedded and industrial computing. While there were tons of “solutions” present, one question still seems to be in the back of the developer’s mind: Do I build it myself or buy an off-the-shelf solution? Or is there a third option?  … Read More »

Power Is Key in Your Industrial SBC

February 22, 2019
WinSystems WinSights

The explosive growth and continuing evolution of Industry 4.0 have been providing electronic design engineers with lots of opportunity, but also lots of headaches. Trends like Industrial IoT (IIoT), Edge computing, and the expansion of intelligent systems, coupled with the coming integration of Artificial Intelligence, are constantly changing the design landscape. Deciding which Single-Board Computer… Read More »
