Faster to market, higher productivity and better security. These are just some of the improvements you will see from adopting a microservice architecture. Moving away from a monolithic application will be a challenge, but the long-term gain is worth the short-term pain.

Engineers agree device power is the most challenging design problem.

When technology drives change on its own, things tend to improve. When social or political events force tech changes, the results are more random. Is it just us, or does Mastodon give you some nostalgic warmth of the BBS world, but with better graphics?

What will happen when billions of small, ultra-low power devices sitting at the edge of the network are powered 24/7 with just RF energy?

The capabilities of wearable healthcare devices continue to expand thanks to developments in semiconductor technologies

The IoT is already being used to share medical data; soon it will be home to virtual clinical trials. Moving to virtual trials could also reduce the time taken to conduct clinical trials from years to months, or in some cases even less than a day.

Indoor farming on a commercial scale is now an essential part of the food chain. These endeavors are more than just large greenhouses; they are carefully controlled environments with conditions optimized for getting the highest possible yield from the crops planted.

One of the biggest challenges for engineers looking to add embedded vision or image sensors to a design is the diversity in camera and sensor hardware interfaces, which is enough to make your head explode.
