HiPerCAS Lab

Introduction

WELCOME TO THE HiPerCAS TEAM!​

Our research is focused on innovation in the area of design of energy efficient, high performance, secure VLSI systems.  Special emphasis is placed on co-design across levels of VLSI design abstraction, including design methodologies,  system architectures, algorithms, circuits, and emerging devices. On-going work spans design of vertical power delivery, artificially intelligent hardware, hardware security, and shifting electronic design automation paradigms through learning.
