Arm Research

Microcontrollers (MCUs) are the ubiquitous computer of our time, being tiny, cheap, and low power. Often powered by using solar cell, they are in your watch, fridge, and your car will contain about thirty…

The ability to perform computation on data efficiently is only half the story when it comes to new Arm Helium technology. Equally important is the ability to access and store this data in memory.

The fourth annual Arm Research Summit, and the first in the US, held in Austin, Texas, created a collaborative space for academics, researchers and industry experts globally to discuss complex computing…

Temporal data prefetching usually introduces huge on- and off-chip storage and traffic overheads, making them impractical. However, a novel solution proposed by Arm Research and The University of Texas…

The Arm Research Summit has been engaging academics, industry experts and researchers since 2016, promoting collaboration in a research led environment. Overtime the Summit has grown and developed, seeing…

The growth of the Internet of Things has brought about a range of new challenges for IC designers, now IoT devices are required to perform a range of different functions, within strict power and volume…

Carefully crafting your Dockerfiles proves to be not only important for minimizing your container attack surface, but also for speeding up the deployment times of applications running both in the cloud…

In previous posts we've looked at how Arm Helium technology handles vector instructions. The problem is that whenever code is vectorized, it’s not long before Amdahl's law sneaks up on you! Amdahl's law…

Researchers have studied neural network compression for quite some time. However, the need for always on compute has led to a recent trend towards executing these applications on even smaller IoT devices…

Fixed functional hardware accelerators have been researched for many years, and it is well understood that they improve the performance and energy efficiency of a system. Integrating hardware accelerators…

LightweightM2M is a device management protocol designed for sensor networks and the demands of a machine-to-machine (M2M) environment. The OMA SpecWorks LwM2M v1.1 specification was released earlier this…

Members of Arm Research explore the numerous challenges facing our industry and, outline the direction for Research in the near future.

Arm DesignStart for Academia offers easy access to the Cortex-M0 and Cortex-M3 processors for teaching (DesignStart Eval), research (DesignStart Pro Academic), and commercialization (DesignStart Pro).

In the current technology scaling paradigm, semiconductor device physics and conductor parasitics are fundamentally limiting microprocessor performance beyond the 7nm process node. There are two major…

2019 was yet another year of incredible technology discovery for Arm Research. Inspiring advancements have been made across the research community, and Arm Research has contributed to this. Our teams have…

The decreasing cost and power consumption of intelligent, interconnected, and interactive devices at the edge of the internet are creating opportunities to instrument our cities, factories, farms and environment…

I've had several opportunities to supervise student interns doing their Master’s or PhD degrees. As you can see from the map above, our interns come to us from all over the world, and three internships…

Following many years of collaboration on a range of research projects, Arm Research and the University of Bristol have established an Arm Centre of Excellence. Six months in, the Centre of Excellence is…

There are just a few weeks to go before the 2018 Arm Research Summit! We’re pleased to announce that our full agenda is now available, featuring a wide range of talks, workshops and demos, and keynotes…

The flexibility permitted by the Arm Scalable Vector Extension is valuable to computer architects looking to address the increasing computation requirements of HPC, data analytics and machine learning…

IoT sensor nodes place severe energy constraints on computing platforms. Duty-cycling helps to reduce the power of the sensor node to save energy, but requires an ultra-low-power timer for reliable timed…
