Grenoble-based engineers from CEA-List have more than doubled the speed of a matrix multiplication program using a new dynamic compilation method. This method, designed specifically for multi-core processors, works by optimizing the execution of the most calculation-intensive sections of code. It offers an attractive alternative to static compilation, which optimizes the overall code using conservative […] >>

Locating an object to within just a few centimeters sounds easy—except when you are over 3.6 km away. But that’s what French start-up BeSpoon was able to do using impulse radio ultra-wideband (IR-UWB) technology developed by Leti. This range of 3,641 meters sets a world record based on emergency situation UWB regulations; the range based […] >>

Leti’s Open3D® integration platform has another prestigious contract under its belt. The platform was used to develop through-silicon vias (TSVs) for chips designed by the CERN and manufactured by IBM. The TSVs make it easier to assemble the ASIC chips used in pixel array detectors for high-energy particles, since they eliminate the need for filament […] >>

This fall Grenoble Institute of Technology-Phelma will kick-off France’s first work-study program for micro and nanoelectronic systems design. This program was developed in association with Grenoble-area high-tech businesses and was approved by the regional government in April 2013. The program will give engineers the theoretical knowledge and real-world experience to design integrated systems. It aims […] >>

The good news just keeps coming for Prestodiag, a start-up founded in 2012 to develop advanced INAC-ISB bacteria-detection technology. In the space of just a few months, Prestodiag won three awards for innovative start-ups, including one from the Génopôle Evry biotech cluster and one in the French Senate’s entrepreneurship competition. Prestodiag’s fast-detection method is truly […] >>
