On-Chip Communication For Programmable Accelerators In Heterogeneous SoCs (Columbia, IBM)


A technical paper titled “Towards Generalized On-Chip Communication for Programmable Accelerators in Heterogeneous Architectures” was published by researchers at Columbia University and IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center. Abstract: "We present several enhancements to the open-source ESP platform to support flexible and efficient on-chip communication for programmable accelerators in het... » read more

Chip Industry Week In Review


JEDEC and the Open Compute Project rolled out a new set of guidelines for standardizing chiplet characterization details, such as thermal properties, physical and mechanical requirements, and behavior specs. Those details have been a sticking point for commercial chiplets, because without them it's not possible to choose the best chiplet for a particular application or workload. The guidelines ... » read more

Research Bits: April 8


Annealing processor Researchers from the Tokyo University of Science designed a scalable, fully-coupled annealing processor with 4096 spins on a single board with 36 CMOS chips, with parallelized capabilities for accelerated solving of combinatorial optimization problems. "We want to achieve advanced information processing directly at the edge, rather than in the cloud, or performing prepro... » read more

Hacking DNA To Make 3D Nanostructures


A technical paper titled “Three-dimensional nanoscale metal, metal oxide, and semiconductor frameworks through DNA-programmable assembly and templating” was published by researchers at Brookhaven National Laboratory, Columbia University, and Stony Brook University. Abstract: "Controlling the three-dimensional (3D) nanoarchitecture of inorganic materials is imperative for enabling their no... » read more

Research Bits: November 6


Fast superatomic semiconductor Researchers from Columbia University created a fast and efficient superatomic semiconductor material based on rhenium called Re6Se8Cl2. Rather than scattering when they come into contact with phonons, excitons in Re6Se8Cl2 bind with phonons to create new quasiparticles called acoustic exciton-polarons. Although polarons are found in many materials, those in Re6Se... » read more
