TechWorks Semiconductors to Systems Summit | 26th August 2026
Create: Systems, Integration & Verification
Hosted by AESIN & DESN | Sponsored by NXP
The Create two cross-sector sessions focussed on systems innovation and trends, real-world deployments. The focus was on the transition to software-defined products, HW–SW co-design and verification, the growing role of AI, automation and robotics in enabling more intelligent systems, alongside continued innovation in power systems and electrification. There was a focus on functional safety from semiconductor through to system level. We highlighted the integration of AI into the design flow, and the expanding role of modelling, simulation and verification in reducing deployment risk. We considered resilient positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) as a key enabler for reliable real-world operation across sectors.
