The phrase “IoT” for Internet of Things has exploded to cover a wide range of different applications and diverse devices with very different requirements. Most observers, however, would agree that low energy consumption is a key element for IoT, as...

Lossless compression via hardware GZIP iP can reduce connectivity and energy requirements for IoT and other Internet devices.

In the video world, latency is the amount of time between the instant a frame is captured and the instant that frame is displayed. Low latency is a design goal for any system where there is real-time interaction with the video content, such as video...

A paper, slides, and presentation video discussing how lossless data compression—with CAST's ZipAccel GZIP IP cores—can save significant energy in IOT applications.

Power consumption and area are commonly considered in choosing an embedded SoC processor, but the role of the processor’s instruction set architecture (ISA) code density can be more significant, yet is often overlooked.

Newton Abdalla, CAST, Inc. Yuzo Ishikura, Spinnaker Systems The value of semiconductor intellectual property (IP) in saving time and cost while developing complex new Systems-on-Chip (SoC) designs is well understood. But IP also has a valuable role...

Discusses the hardware implementations of QOI (Quite Okay Image) lossless compression encoder and decoder IP cores. Provides sample results, and describes a further compression improvement using the Hilbert curve.

White paper comparing the compression efficiency of JPEG-LS, JPEG2000, PNG, and QOI lossless compression algorithms.

Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) Ethernet is appealing for aeronautic systems, and potentially may replace current standards like MIL-STD-1553 and ARINC-664. The standard for Aerospace TSN—the 802.1DP profile —is evolving, and our partner Fraunhofer...

CANsec is a resource-efficient solution for securing the CAN bus against the most common cyber security threats on software-defined vehicles. Here we show that the encryption and authentication of CAN XL frames are possible without latencies or loss...
