Digital twin technology is changing how the automotive industry designs and tests products and solutions for electromobility (e-mobility).
With pressure to develop more energy-efficient batteries, and a ramp-up in charging infrastructure development, digital twins can help bring new products to market faster, without compromising on conformance to standards for performance and safety.
Emulator Versus Simulator
Digital twins have emerged as a hot technology topic, but the concept has its roots in emulation technology dating back to the early 1990s.
Emulators imitate the behaviour of one or more pieces of equipment, whether an integrated circuit or even an entire piece of equipment and have numerous applications.

In this month’s technology opinion leader column from Keysight Technologies, Keith Bromley shares his insights into how an EMA research report has amplified the importance of a network visibility architecture for the hybrid, multi-cloud enterprise.

Network Visibility Architecture for the Hybrid, Multi-Cloud Enterprise
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and continued threat of cyber-attacks has put the IT and security industry on high alert, resulting in many organisations having to push their network infrastructure into the cloud.
This adoption to support remote work has created challenges in seeing security threats and maintaining performance.
As a way to further explore the industry’s response to current visibility initiatives, EMA released a report which investigates how IT and security organisations use network visibility architectures to deliver network packets for critical performance and security, and suggests how organisations should evolve their network visibility architectures as they adopt hybrid, multi-cloud architectures.

6G wireless technology brings with it a promise for a better future. Among other goals, 6G technology intends to merge the human, physical, and digital worlds. In doing so, there is a hope that 6G can significantly aid in achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

As 5G continues to roll out, work is already well underway on its successor – 6G.
In today’s guest commentary, Jessy Cavazos from Keysight Technologies answers some of the most common questions surrounding 6G and provides more insight into the vision for 6G and how it will achieve these critical goals.
1. What is 6G?
6G is the sixth generation of the wireless communications standard for cellular networks that will succeed today’s 5G.
The research community does not expect 6G technology to replace the previous generations, though.
Instead, they will work together to provide solutions that enhance our lives.

What is the key to understanding the depth of an Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithm’s unique power? Jeff Harris from Keysight Technologies shares his insights into how measurement determines the potential of your AI algorithm.

Determining the potential of your AI algorithm begins with measurement.
At the core of every AI algorithm are three basic ingredients:
- the ability to measure
- knowing how much of what you measure needs to be processed
- the ability to process more than one input at a time
To what depth a system can measure can be thought of as its potential.
Determining what aspects of those measurements must be sent to the processor can be thought of as delivering that potential.
Finally, knowing how to combine the salient parts of those measurements in the correct proportions, known as sensor fusion, is the key to exploring an algorithm’s IQ or reasoning potential.

We frequently see DDR SDRAMs as a key specification of computers and digital devices. In this two-part guest commentary, Ben Miller from Keysight Technologies shares his insights into the design of DDR SDRAMs (Part 1) and how faster memory speeds shape the future (Part 2).
DDR5 is still in the early phases of adoption. JEDEC released the standard in July 2020. The first CPU platform to support DDR5 was released in early 2022.
However, this platform still includes DDR4 support, so it could be some time before the industry accepts DDR5 as the de-facto memory standard and fully transitions memory systems to the new standard.
Faster memory enables the future
Over the next couple of years, more personal computers, servers, and embedded systems will take advantage of the higher speed, lower power, and greater memory capacity available with DDR5.

We frequently see DDR SDRAMs as a key specification of computers and digital devices. In this two-part guest commentary, Ben Miller from Keysight Technologies shares his insights into the design of DDR SDRAMs (Part 1) and how faster memory speeds shape the future (Part 2).
Faster data processing requires faster memory.
Double data rate synchronous dynamic random-access memory (DDR SDRAM) enables the world’s computers to work with the data in memory.
Faster, not wider
Since the origins of SDRAM, engineers have faced challenges with increasing memory speeds.

Figure 1: DDR has both one-way control signals and bidirectional data buses. Click to enlarge.
DDR emerged as a faster, more efficient way to handle memory, while providing a universal standard between chip designers and device manufacturers.
As shown in Figure 1, DDR memory consists of a memory controller which transmits clock, address and control signals, and a series of DRAM chips which store the data.
In a write operation, the controller sends data and strobe signals to the DRAM; in a read operation, the DRAM sends data and strobe signals back over the same bi-directional line.
DDR SDRAM became the standard in the late 1990s and has since been improved upon many times over.
Prior to DDR, memory speeds maxed out in the range of 100 MT/s.

The COVID-19 pandemic is spurring the healthcare industry to turn to robots for help. Darrell Adams shares how cobots – collaborative robots – reduce the risk of healthcare workers by minimising in-person contact with patients who are isolated.

COVID-19, the global pandemic, took the world by surprise and suddenly the healthcare system has to confront one of the toughest challenges on a global scale.
Millions of Nurses Needed
The global healthcare system is cracking under the strain of this global pandemic.
Yet, a recent report shows that globally, we are in need of 6 million more nurses to achieve global health targets, even without a global pandemic.
This is an alarming number, and it is unlikely that over a short period of time, the demand can be met.
Healthcare workers are working round the clock and the intense workload at the frontline led to exhaustion in many, virus infection in others, and some sadly passed away in their line of duty.
Human Factors and Errors
In the study of human factors and fatigue, factors which contribute to human errors within the confines of human factors include sleep deprivation, shift schedules, repetitive tasks, physically demanding tasks, and of course, stress.
In the medical sector, besides the lack of nurses, the healthcare industry faces other challenges such as a high instance of human error due to a pressurising and non-automated environment, working on shifts, with a substantial amount of time dedicated to administrative tasks, which takes away precious time from patient care.
