During the third quarter of 2018, we made an organizational change to combine our artificial intelligence investments in edge computing with IOTG; accordingly, approximately $480 million of goodwill was reallocated from "all other" to the IOTG operating segment.
During the fourth quarters of 2018, 2017, and 2016, we completed our annual impairment assessments and we concluded that goodwill was not impaired in any of these years. The accumulated impairment losses as of December 29, 2018 were $719 million: $365 million associated with CCG, $275 million associated with DCG, and $79 million associated with IOTG.
