Right-Sizing Compute at the Edge
How to Match CPUs, GPUs, and AI Accelerators to Your Application
Tuesday, September 22 11:00 AM Room 202
Selecting more compute isn't the same as selecting the right compute. Explore how workload characteristics, latency, power, thermal constraints, I/O, and deployment requirements influence CPU, GPU, and AI accelerator decisions.
Key takeaways
- Determine the workload of the application before selecting the processor.
- Understand where CPUs, GPUs, integrated AI engines, and dedicated accelerators fit.
- Balance performance against power, thermal, I/O, lifecycle, and deployment constraints.

Embedded AI
Designing Modular, AI-Ready Hardware for 10+ Year Embedded Deployments
Tuesday, September 22 1:30 PM Room 202
Embedded platforms may remain deployed for a decade or more while processors, accelerators, interfaces, and application requirements continue to change. Learn architecture strategies that allow systems to evolve without forcing a complete redesign.
Key takeaways
- Separate long-life system requirements from rapidly changing compute technology.
- Evaluate modular compute, expansion, and acceleration strategies.
- Design for future performance, I/O, lifecycle, and AI requirements.
