Anchors While Both Hardware and Software are Changing in AI Semiconductor
The global AI market has grown at 35.6% annual CAGR during forecast period of 2021-2026. It creates strong demands for the semiconductor industry.
AI semiconductor is forecast to be $7.1 billion by 2025, growing by a five-year CAGR of 25.29%. More than 3x faster than the global semiconductor market.
People said it’s a new golden age for computer architecture.
However, modern neural networks require huge computation power and it leads most AI chips are sort of heterogeneous multicore systems. The systems are composed of complex software systems on various hardware components. Conventional hardware/software codesign and electronic system level design come back to the center of development process.
In this talk, we will introduce the challenges coming from both hardware and software sides. We will discuss the reactions when a team is facing to the dynamic schedule and system requirement. In the end of the talk, we will introduce our solutions – ONNC – a system software addressing these great challenges.
