Warehouses offer all kinds of opportunities for robots. Semi-structured controlled environments, lots of repetitive tasks, and humans that would almost universally rather be somewhere else. Robots have been doing great at taking over jobs that involve moving stuff from one place to another, but there are all kinds of other…

The Real Story of Pixar

The story of Pixar doesn't start with its founding—a tech company's story rarely does. Rather, the original spark often comes from a university lab, a renegade group at a large company, or a hobbyist building stuff for fun. Pixar's story doesn't even start with the creation of Lucasfilm's Computer Graphics…

Randomness is typically seen as a problem, interfering with our ability to make sense of the world and complicating our attempts to predict the future. But that very unpredictability also makes it a crucial ingredient in the encryption that protects billions of dollars worth of private data. Random numbers are…

How to Write Exceptionally Clear Requirements: 21 Tips

Systems Engineers face a major dilemma: More than 50% of project defects are caused by poorly written requirements. It's important to identify problematic language early on, before it develops into late-stage rework, cost-overruns, and recalls. Learn how to identify risks, errors and ambiguities in requirements before they cripple your project.…

For the first time, researchers have been able to image how atoms in a computer switch move around on fast timescales while it turns on and off. This ability to peer into the atomic world may hold the key to a new kind of switch for computers that will speed…

Using the exida Component Reliability Database for New Product Design and Development

30 Ιουλίου 2021 by paulkokos

Failure Modes, Effects, and Diagnostics Analysis (FMEDA) set the standard for calculating safety and reliability of automatic protection systems to IEC61508. FMEDA results, however, are only as good as the failure rate data that is used to create them. A new component reliability database (CRD) overcomes limitations and improves accuracy.…
