Novel H2H mapping algorithm with both computation and communication awareness


New research paper "H2H: Heterogeneous Model to Heterogeneous System Mapping with Computation and Communication Awareness" from University of Pittsburgh, Georgia Tech. Abstract: "The complex nature of real-world problems calls for heterogeneity in both machine learning (ML) models and hardware systems. The heterogeneity in ML models comes from multi-sensor perceiving and multi-task lear... » read more

SCV (select, cross, and variation): Data Encryption


A new technical paper "RSCV: Reversible Select, cross and variation architecture in quantum-dot cellular automata." Abstract "In the past few years, CMOS semiconductor has been a growing and evolving technology in VLSI. However, due to the scaling issue and some other constraints like heat generation, high power consumption QCA (quantum cellular automata) emerged as an alternate and enhan... » read more

Hardware Encryption: Ultra-compact Active Interconnect Based on FeFET


New technical paper "Hardware functional obfuscation with ferroelectric active interconnects" from researchers at Penn State, Rochester Institute of Technology, GlobalFoundries Fab1, North Dakota State University. Abstract "Existing circuit camouflaging techniques to prevent reverse engineering increase circuit-complexity with significant area, energy, and delay penalty. In this paper, we... » read more

Parallel Circuit Execution & NISQ Computing


Research from LIRMM, University of Montpellier, CNRS. Abstract "Quantum computing is performed on Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) hardware in the short term. Only small circuits can be executed reliably on a quantum machine due to the unavoidable noisy quantum operations on NISQ devices, leading to the under-utilization of hardware resources. With the growing demand to access quan... » read more

AI-Based Method to Prune the Design Space of Heterogeneous NoCs


Abstract "Often suffering from under-optimization, Networks-on-Chip (NoCs) heavily impact the efficiency of domain-specific Systems-on-Chip. To cope with this issue, heterogeneous NoCs are promising alternatives. Nevertheless, the design of optimized NoCs satisfying multiple performance objectives is extremely challenging and requires significant expertise. Prior works failed to combine many... » read more

Vertically stacked, low-voltage organic ternary logic circuits including nonvolatile floating-gate memory transistors


Research paper from KAIST and Gachon University. Abstract "Multi-valued logic (MVL) circuits based on heterojunction transistor (HTR) have emerged as an effective strategy for high-density information processing without increasing the circuit complexity. Herein, an organic ternary logic inverter (T-inverter) is demonstrated, where a nonvolatile floating-gate flash memory is employed to ... » read more

Analog Edge Inference with ReRAM


Abstract "As the demands of big data applications and deep learning continue to rise, the industry is increasingly looking to artificial intelligence (AI) accelerators. Analog in-memory computing (AiMC) with emerging nonvolatile devices enable good hardware solutions, due to its high energy efficiency in accelerating the multiply-and-accumulation (MAC) operation. Herein, an Applied Materials... » read more

HD Map (EdgeMap) Crowdsources Data From Connected Vehicles in Auto Edge Computing


New research paper from University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Xidian University and University of North Carolina at Charlotte. Abstract "High definition (HD) map needs to be updated frequently to capture road changes, which is constrained by limited specialized collection vehicles. To maintain an up-to-date map, we explore crowdsourcing data from connected vehicles. Updating the map collaborati... » read more

Die-level Thinning and Integrating Route For Singulated MPW Chips Using Both Silicon Sensors and CMOS Devices


Abstract "Die-level thinning, handling, and integration of singulated dies from multi-project wafers (MPW) are often used in research, early-stage development, and prototyping of flexible devices. There is a high demand for thin silicon devices for several applications, such as flexible electronics. To address this demand, we study a novel post-processing method on two silicon devices, an el... » read more

Image Sensor Trained To Classify Optically Projected Images By Reading Out The Few Most Relevant Pixels


New research paper "Sparse pixel image sensor" from Institute of Photonics, Vienna University of Technology. Abstract "As conventional frame-based cameras suffer from high energy consumption and latency, several new types of image sensors have been devised, with some of them exploiting the sparsity of natural images in some transform domain. Instead of sampling the full image, those devices... » read more
