Rohit Rawool: Why Hardware Matters in a Software-Driven World

Broadband Breakfast

Yet, as we chase the promise of a hyper-connected future, we risk overlooking a critical component of our technological infrastructure: mechanical engineering in telecommunications hardware.    Without robust, scalable, and field-ready hardware, the promise of 5G, IoT, and cloud-based services remains out of reach for millions.

What are VoIP codecs, and how do they affect call quality?

VoIP MS

That’s where codecs come into play as essential tools that compress, transmit, and decompress audio signals over the internet, ensuring that voice communications remain clear and uninterrupted. During a call, a codec rapidly converts analog audio signals into digital data, preserving sound quality while optimizing bandwidth usage.

What is an IP Phone and when to use it 

VoIP MS

In essence, they convert voice into digital signals that are transmitted through your internet connection. Converting analog to digital When you speak into an IP phone, it captures your analog voice signals and instantly converts them into digital data packets. But how exactly does it convert your voice into calls over the internet?

The next frontier: How neuromorphic computing is shaping tomorrow

HCL Tech

By designing hardware that mimics neural and synaptic structures, neuromorphic computing aims to process information more efficiently and adaptively than traditional methods. These DNNs are emulated on conventional hardware like CPUs and GPUs and are used to train complex AI models using high/multi-dimensional data.
