Allegro DVT Launches the World’s First Hardware-Based VVC/H.266 Decoder Silicon IP

Allegro DVT , the leading provider of video processing silicon IPs, today announced the immediate availability of its AL-D320 video decoder semiconductor IP core supporting the latest Versatile Video Coding (VVC/H.266) format. The AL-D320 core is the world’s first hardware IP to support the new VVC format with 8, 10 and 12-bit samples, chroma sampling of 4:2:0 and 4:2:2 and image resolutions and rates of up to 8K120. Added to this, the core continues to support H.264 and HEVC up to 12-bit and 4:4:4 chroma subsampling.

The Versatile Video Coding (VVC/H.266) format has been developed as the successor to the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC/H.265) format, with the aim of 30-50% better video compression for the same perceptual video quality. VVC supports resolutions up to 16K as well as 360° videos.

Nouar Hamze, CEO of Allegro DVT commented “The increased complexity of VVC requires HW based implementations for the decoding function to achieve the best trade-off between power consumption, performance and total cost of the solution.”

He added “The increase in complexity of leading-edge video codecs has lengthened development time. We have developed and released our VVC decoder IP early on to accelerate market adoption. Our release pre-empts the demand in a way that we believe will enable OEMs and semiconductor vendors to confidently move forward with the introduction of solutions with VVC decoding capability and therefore speed up the adoption of this new codec to unlock new use cases such as 8K broadcast worldwide.”

The AL-D320 employs a unique multi-format and multi-core architecture which allows scalability to seamlessly support additional video codecs such as AV1/VP9/HEVC/H.264 and higher decoding throughputs up to 8K60 and 8K120.
The release of this range of VVC decoder IP cores shows a continuation in Allegro DVT’s ability to consistently innovate and deliver at the highest level in the market. Building on existing production-proven video decoder semiconductor IP cores, the AL-D320 range of decoders provides end customers both early access to the latest technology while at the same time minimizing adoption risk.

AL-D320 decoder IP is immediately available for integration by SoC vendors in various technology nodes ranging from 28nm down to 5nm and below through a seamless and proven HW and SW integration kit.

Gurobi's Research Leadership Recognized Across Leading Scientific Organizations16.6.2026 15:00:00 CEST | Press release

Awards recognize foundational research that helped shape the fields of mixed-integer and nonlinear optimization—and reflect the company’s deep scientific roots. Gurobi Optimization, LLC, the leader in decision intelligence technology, today announced recognitions received by Dr. Edward Rothberg and Dr. Andreas Wächter from leading academic and industry organizations for research that has had lasting impact on the field of optimization. “Gurobi was founded on a commitment to rigorous, applied optimization research,” said Dr. Oliver Bastert, CTO, Gurobi. “And these recognitions are a reflection of that legacy. The foundational work that Ed and Andreas produced continues to shape the field, and that same spirit of scientific innovation drives everything we do today.” Dr. Edward Rothberg, co-founder and Chairman of the Board at Gurobi, was recently honored with the INFORMS Test of Time Paper Award for his paper, “An Evolutionary Algorithm for Polishing Mixed Integer Programming Solutions.”

Airship Helps DIE ZEIT Turn Silent Advocates into 4.9-Star Rating16.6.2026 15:00:00 CEST | Press release

Leveraging Airship’s Customer Experience Platform, Germany’s leading digital news publisher transforms reader engagement and captures 822 active responses in a single day. Airship, the mobile-first customer experience company, today announced that DIE ZEIT, one of Germany’s largest and most prestigious publishers, has successfully transformed its mobile app presence, lifting the Google Play app store rating from 2.7 stars in early 2026 to a near-perfect 4.9 stars. At a time when many traditional publishers are seeing readership numbers plummet, DIE ZEIT is growing — reaching an all-time high circulation in 2025 and building a digital ecosystem around the brand. The majority of the publication’s readers are now digital, but the publication’s app store rating for DIE ZEIT didn’t match this momentum. DIE ZEIT was up against a universal challenge faced by digital product teams and customer experience executives globally: the "silent advocate" problem. While highly satisfied customers rarel

New CSC Report Illustrates How AI Is Affecting Enterprise Security Leaders16.6.2026 15:00:00 CEST | Press release

CISO Outlook 2026 report indicates 73% of security leaders view AI as an opportunity rather than a risk, however traditional and AI-driven cyber threats persist CSC, an enterprise-class domain registrar and world leader in mitigating brand, fraud, domain, and domain name system (DNS) threats, today released new research on how chief information security officers (CISOs) are adapting to an evolving artificial intelligence (AI) ecosystem while managing traditional cyber threats, such as DNS outages. According to CSC’s CISO Outlook 2026 report, 73% of respondents say AI presents more of an opportunity than a risk for cybersecurity. However, these security leaders continue to face challenges in addressing attacks, including AI-powered domain generation algorithms (DGAs), which 86% of respondents cite as a threat. To thoroughly understand the CISO perspective on today’s cybersecurity landscape, CSC surveyed 300 senior executives—including CISOs, chief technology officers (CTOs), chief infor

TestMu AI Introduces DevTools Assertions in Kane CLI, Enabling Browser-Level Validation Through Natural Language16.6.2026 14:30:00 CEST | Press release

New capability allows developers and AI agents to validate network activity, console logs, browser storage, and performance metrics without writing custom scripts TestMu AI (formerly LambdaTest), the world's first Agentic AI-powered Quality Engineering platform, today announced DevTools Assertions for Kane CLI, enabling developers and AI agents to validate browser internals using natural language. Traditional browser automation focuses on what users can see: buttons, forms, text, and visual states. However, modern web applications depend heavily on browser activity that remains invisible to users, including network requests, API responses, console logs, cookies, local storage, and performance metrics. With DevTools Assertions, Kane CLI extends browser validation beyond the UI, allowing teams to verify these underlying signals using plain-English objectives. Developers can now write objectives such as: "Click Add to Cart and assert the request to /api/cart returned status 200." "Run the
