RISC-V at Foundry Scale: How MIPS and GlobalFoundries Industrialize Physical AI

As AI expands beyond cloud data centers into the machines that move, build, and protect the physical world, the silicon foundations beneath it must evolve. Physical AI—spanning automotive, industrial, aerospace, and networking systems—depends on deterministic performance and verifiable design. Traditional open-ISA approaches have struggled to deliver that rigor at industrial scale.

The BMC Mainframe Survey at 20: More Than a Legacy, It’s a Launchpad

The mainframe has long been the subject of decline predictions, yet its resilience has only strengthened its role as the undisputed bedrock of global enterprise computing. Now, as the BMC Mainframe Survey celebrates its 20th anniversary, the old narrative is obsolete. The mainframe isn’t just a legacy system you have to maintain; it’s a dynamic, growing platform essential for digital transformation. This new, exciting era is powered by two main forces: a fresh infusion of modern technologies like AI and cloud, and a major generational hand-off within the workforce. The 2025 survey confirms that the mainframe is evolving from a powerful, reliable workhorse into a strategic launchpad, actively attracting new workloads and driving innovation for the world’s largest organizations.

Integrating Data and Control Planes for Physical AI Workloads: Why the MIPS I8500 Matters

As AI expands beyond the cloud into the physical world, the silicon foundations that enable machines to sense, think, act, and communicate must evolve. Physical AI applications—ranging from autonomous vehicles and robotics to communications infrastructure and smart storage—depend on real-time data movement and deterministic response. Traditional architectures divide these tasks between control-plane CPUs and data-plane accelerators, creating latency, inefficiency, and integration overhead.
