Hi everyone,At VIA Embedded we had a pretty good year for our ARM projects, and thought I share with you our highlights for 2015. New Hardware ARTiGO A600 ARTiGO A820 QSM-8Q60 Software updates…

ARM®’s newest high performance GPU, the Mali™-T880, delivers better than ever graphics performance whilst remaining well within the energy constraints of a mobile platform. The exciting possibilities this…

As discussed in our virtual reality (VR) intro blog, whilst the VR industry is moving from strength to strength, there are still a few key issues which often stand in the way of developing a truly successful…

OverviewThe GNU ARM Eclipse project includes a set of open source Eclipse plug-ins and tools to create/build/debug/manage ARM (32-bits) and AArch64 (64-bits) applications and static/shared libraries, using…

This paper, jointly authored by Hillcrest Labs and ARM, sets out to explain the background of sensor fusion processing and to present to the reader the advances in device capability that will be enabled…

In this White Paper, commissioned by ARM, author and leading industry commentator John Blyler (jblyler), takes a look at the current economics of custom System-on-Chip development relative to discrete…

Introduction Link Time Optimization (LTO) is a form of interprocedural optimization which, as the name suggests, is performed at the time of linking a program. This is particularly useful when building…

New data shows that the break-even, return on investment (RoI) point continues to fall as custom SoCs compete directly with traditional discrete IC board designs.By jblyler, Editorial Director, JB SystemsCompelling…

The most advanced System on Chip in the world is only so much inert silicon without the printed circuit board that supplies it with power, connects its interfaces and otherwise gives it a home where it…

In this blog series we’ll be looking at the current status of Virtual Reality with a special focus on mobile VR, where it’s heading in the future and what ARM® can do to help us get there. We’ll be covering…

The most appropriate method of implementing push and pop operations depends on the nature of the engine used. I consider a number of possible solutions for the AArch64 port of Google V8 JavaScript engine…

We have just released DS-5 5.23 with significant enhancements to Streamline. In this blog, I will highlight the major changes in the latest version.  For a more detailed list of enhancements and fixes…

I recently met up with Vasu Madabushi, Director of Marketing and Business Development at Inforce Computing (Silicon Valley).  I found out to my surprise that InForce is one of the few Qualcomm partners…

It's been a while since my last performance blog, but one of those lunchtime coffee discussions about a blog I'd like to write was turned into a working tech demo by wasimabbas overnight, so thanks…

This blog was written by Kapileshwar Syamasundar during his summer placement at ARM in the ARM Mali Graphics demo team. Kapil did some great work at ARM porting the Ice Cave demo to VR using Unity, we…

When reading assembly-level code for any of the AArch32 or AArch64 instruction sets, you may have noticed that the stack pointer has various alignment and usage restrictions. These restrictions are part…

Embedded Computing Boards is much more than industrial PCs. In fact there are unique and differentiating technologies such as PoP, which stands for Package on Package technology that can be offered by…
