FPGA Frontrunner: Mans Ahmadian
Representing Sundance at the event, Chief Innovation Officer, Dr. Mans Ahmadian is scheduled to present a defence-grade secure workflow for manufacturing, testing, and programming FPGAs.
“As defence and aerospace systems evolve, the security perimeter has shifted. Protecting data in the field is no longer sufficient; we must secure the entire supply chain. Dr. Ahmadian’s talk, “Defence-Grade Implementation Using PolarFire FPGA on Sundance PCIe104N Platform,” addresses the risks of bitstream interception and hardware overbuilding in distributed manufacturing.” – SundanceDSP
