Developing for Purpose, Efficiency, Reliability, and Interoperability with Arm Purpose-Built Silicon with Open-Source Firmware

This conference talk explores the Arm Neoverse Compute Subsystem (CSS) powered by upstream updates including TFA, SCP, MCP, EDK2, and OpenBMC. Learn how AI-accelerated system design is driving demand for purpose-built Arm solutions that optimize cost and resource utilization. Discover how cloud-native Arm processors and accelerators are being deployed by hyperscalers and Enterprise datacenters to handle large-scale workloads for HPC and AI applications. The presentation builds upon previous OCP sessions, providing updates on Arm Total Design (ATD) ecosystem developments while highlighting ecosystem standardization initiatives for improved reliability and compliance through Arm SystemReady. Explore the critical role of open-system firmware and examine IFV OCP contributions along with practical implementation paths for advanced Arm solutions across the broader technology industry. Presented by Zachary Bobroff (AMI - Director of Product Office) and Dong Wei (ARM - Standards Architect and Fellow).
