"Intelligent edge." That is a new term for many. Basically it refers to the the increased computational capabilities at the edge of the communications networks. Typically, heavy compute loads are executed in data centers or on supercomputers. As the "intelligent edge" ramps up performance, those calculations are enabled by embedded devices using multicore CPUs, FPGAs, SoCs, and the like. Intelliegent edge and embedded computing applications combine faster speeds with lower power … [Read more...]
