Research and Development for Original Products and the Importance of University-industry collaboration


Başlık: A Potpourri of Ideas and Results in DRAM, FPGA Infrastructures, and RISC-V Processors

Özet: In this talk, I will give an overview of some recent ideas and results in DRAM based random number generation, FPGA based DRAM testing and evaluation infrastructures, undervolting in FPGAs, and RISC-V processor design. This presentation will cover innovative advancements in True Random Number Generators (TRNGs) and FPGA efficiency. Specifically, the talk describes QUAC-TRNG, a high-throughput TRNG that can be implemented in commodity DRAM chips, demonstrating substantial improvements in throughput and utilization compared to state-of-the-art DRAM-based TRNGs. It also introduces DR-STRaNGe, an end-to-end system design addressing the key challenges associated with DRAM-based TRNGs, achieving significant improvements in performance, fairness, and energy consumption. The talk will outline a new experimental infrastructure, DRAM Bender, and briefly discuss the Processing-in-DRAM framework (PiDRAM) to facilitate in-memory processing. The presentation will further explore the effects of undervolting FPGAs on the efficiency and accuracy of convolutional neural network benchmarks, including the surprising impact of temperature and humidity on fault rates. Finally, the ongoing work on utilizing the occurring faults in FPGA undervolting for random number generation (TuRaN) will be discussed, reflecting a broad exploration of cutting-edge techniques in TRNGs, DRAM technology, and FPGA efficiency.
Before we conclude our presentation, we will explain the RISC-V based processor core design efforts in our KASIRGA research group.

Başlık: Semantic Signal Processing and Communications

Özet: Recent advances in machine learning enabled real time extraction of semantic information at the sensor node enabling goal oriented semantic signal processing and communications. For efficient goal-oriented signal processing on the extracted semantic information, a hierarchical graph-based semantic language is proposed.  In this way, semantic filtering of the extracted information can be achieved at the sensor node with a dramatic reduction in the rate of communication in the network.  The proposed semantic signal processing and communications framework can easily be tailored for specific applications and goals in a diverse range of applications. As illustrated over simulated and real sensor data, the proposed framework enables several orders of magnitude reduction in the rate of communication.
