IoT For All Podcast · 16 Sept 2025 · 21m · Episode 384

What this episode covers

Gaurav Johri, co-founder and CEO of Doppelio, explains why software validation is critical for connected products as value shifts from hardware to cloud and edge software. He details how Doppelio uses device virtualization to create 'Doppels' (digital twins) that allow enterprises to test at scale without physical devices, overcoming the limitations of custom simulators. Johri discusses the integration of physical and virtual labs, the role of intelligent automation in CI/CD pipelines, and the ROI of early defect detection in industries like automotive and medical devices.

    Where Software Meets Silicon: A Digital Twin Playbook

    VJ Chobisa, Senior Director at Siemens EDA, explains how digital twins and virtual platforms enable early software-hardware co-development to address system-level verification challenges in massive designs. He details the transition from architectural exploration to emulation and FPGA prototyping, highlighting how connected platforms help teams find power, performance, and DFT issues before tapeout. Chobisa argues that digital twins extend beyond electronics to model entire systems, such as automotive scenarios involving sensors and actuators, ensuring safety and reliability in complex products.

    How to Approach Verification and Validation for Cloud Software

    John Spear, host of the Global Medical Device Podcast, interviews Brad Graves, Principal Project Manager at The RND Group, to clarify verification and validation (V&V) strategies for cloud-based medical device software. They distinguish verification (designing the product correctly) from validation (designing the correct product) and discuss how cloud architectures, such as containerization with Docker, allow for automated testing despite frequent vendor updates. The conversation highlights that while cloud software offers scalability and portability, it requires rigorous change management, including monitoring release notes and leveraging vendor-provided validation evidence to avoid redundant re-validation efforts.

    Embedded Trends for a Connected World

    Nitin Dahad, Editor-in-Chief of Embedded.com, interviews Lars Riga, CTO of NXP Semiconductors, Fred Rivard, CEO of Micro Edge, and Sumit Chauhan, COO of Cerebrum X, to discuss embedded trends in a connected world. Riga explains the shift to a world that anticipates and automates, emphasizing hardware security and digital twins for smart homes and vehicles. Rivard describes how Micro Edge uses software containerization (Macroid) to decouple software from hardware, enabling faster time-to-market and subscription-based services. Chauhan details Cerebrum X’s approach to data monetization in automotive, focusing on synthetic sensors and crash scenario analysis using high-frequency data from cabin, vehicle health, and road streams.
