Scalable Software Testing in Fast Virtual Platforms: Leveraging SystemC, QEMU and Containerization
The ever-increasing complexity of HW/SW systems presents a persistent challenge, particularly in safety-critical domains like automotive, where extensive testing is imperative. However, the availability of hardware often lags behind, hindering early-stage software development. To address this, Virtual Platforms (VPs) based on the SystemC TLM-2.0 standard have emerged as a pivotal solution, enabling pre-silicon execution and testing of unmodified target software. In this study, we propose an app…

Inline Quantum Measurements with SNSPDs Coupled to Photonic Bound States
Superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) are enabling components of quantum photonic integrated circuits for their ease of fabrication and unsurpassed performance. While several approaches for SNSPDs integration are being pursued, scalability and interfacing with electrical readout circuits remain challenging. Here we introduce the concept of inline detection with SNSPDs, facilitating advanced quantum measurements within an ultra-compact device footprint. To establish this appr…
