Sandeep Kapoor – Director of Demand and Channel Marketing at Keysight Technologies – shares his insights into how the next evolution of humankind will be driven by advanced technology.
Revolutionary inventions pave the way for future technological innovations
In 2022, the world celebrated the 75th anniversary of the well-known device, the transistor, and the 65th anniversary of another stellar device, the integrated circuit.
Since then, we have evolved from a single amplifier block to a 3000-transistor wafer in the 1970s to a nanometer process that can accommodate 50 billion transistors onto a chip the size of a fingernail.
Charles Darwin made this historic statement 153 years ago: “From so simple a beginning, endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved.”
The quote from his book, On the Origin of the Species, is quite apt today when applied to emerging technologies, such as 5G, autonomous vehicles, artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and the digital twin.
In the last 35 years, the semiconductor market grew from over US$30 billion to more than US$600 billion, creating millions of employment opportunities.
60 years ago, the Mansfield News Journal correctly predicted the future in an article with the headline: “You’ll be able to carry [your] phone in [a] pocket in the future.”
Exactly 20 years after that, Motorola launched the first commercially available cellular phone, DynaTac 8000X, costing US$3995, weighing around 1 kg, and providing 30 minutes of talk time per charging cycle for 1G networks.
Emerging technologies mature as life-altering advances continue
The evolution continues as 5G networks overcome design challenges to enable <1 ms latency and up to 20 Gbps speed.

Niels Faché from Keysight Technologies shares his insights on the key EDA trends impacting the pace of innovation, as more systems companies move to design their own chips and electronic products.
The electronic design automation (EDA) industry is experiencing strong financial growth and is making a vital contribution to the success of much larger semiconductor and electronic systems industries.
Trend 1: Domain-Specific Design
Electronic product design is moving toward domain-specific orientation. What impact does domain-specific design have on EDA tool developers and users?
Niels Faché:
It is not enough anymore for product developers to just consider the traditional specifications for a chip or board.
Editor’s Comments
Semiconductor chips are the brains of the modern digital era, powering the electronic devices that we use and the digital processes that run our lives.
The production of chips has gained strategic importance to nations because much of our lives are driven by chip-dependent devices, from automobiles and smartphones to the computers and servers in data centers.
It is therefore important to be cognisant of the trends shaping the future of EDA.
They must also now consider the context in which their products will be integrated and used.
Drivers of design for context in product development teams include increased system complexity, more demanding performance and cost requirement tradeoffs, and shorter development lifecycles.
To address these issues, EDA vendors and users are seeing closer collaboration in the ecosystem from developers of components (such as an RFIC), to a sub-system (such as a radar), and a system (such as an autonomous drive system) to address integration challenges and optimise performance.
Design-for-context raises several challenges and opportunities for EDA tool providers such as:

Geopolitical uncertainty has dramatically increased the chances that healthcare organisations will experience more security attacks in the next couple years. Keith Bromley from Keysight Technologies shares his insights into the need for SecOps teams to prepare for even more ransomware attacks to extort money along with “lights out attacks” designed to cripple day to day operations.
The Threat is Real – Three Steps to Securing Your Healthcare Network.
The last two years have proven that the statement — “No one would want to hurt a hospital or healthcare clinic” — is a false narrative.
Cyberattacks against network servers in the healthcare sector rose 35% in 2020 and another 53% in 2021, according to Fortified Health Security reports.
Expect The Unexpected
A focus on cyber resiliency is key to your success.
Once a cyber-attack or breach has been launched, you obviously need to stop the threat.
However, it is just as important to get back to normal operations as fast as possible to maintain business continuity and satisfy patient needs.
The key to making cyber resiliency work safely is to engineer your security architecture with self-healing capabilities from the start.
See the highlight box below for some examples of engineered cyber resilience.
Bad actors are making sure that healthcare organizations either spend now on security defenses or pay later for ransoms, fines and lawsuits.
You can start the process with a three-point plan focused on prevention, detection, and vigilance.
Here are some focused recommendations from this three-point plan:
1. Deploy an inline security solution to reduce as many vulnerabilities within the network as possible
Inline security solutions are a high impact technique that address security threats, especially ransomware targeting healthcare networks.
These solutions can eliminate 90% or more of incoming security threats before they even enter your network.
