Leveraging Large Language Models (LLMs) To Perform SW-HW Co-Design


A technical paper titled “On the Viability of using LLMs for SW/HW Co-Design: An Example in Designing CiM DNN Accelerators” was published by researchers at University of Notre Dame. Abstract: "Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) have demonstrated impressive performance across a wide range of tasks. However, deploying DNNs on edge devices poses significant challenges due to stringent power and com... » read more

Software-Hardware Co-Design Becomes Real


For the past 20 years, the industry has sought to deploy hardware/software co-design concepts. While it is making progress, software/hardware co-design appears to have a much brighter future. In order to understand the distinction between the two approaches, it is important to define some of the basics. Hardware/software co-design is essentially a bottom-up process, where hardware is deve... » read more
