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.
