MAAD: ML-Assisted Architecture Design Tutorial @ MICRO 2023

Call for Participation

We invite folks to attend our upcoming full-day MAAD tutorial at MICRO 2023 on “ML-Assisted Architecture Design: A Hands-On Experience.”

Time & Date: Sunday, October 29, 2023  in Toronto, Canada from 8AM to 5PM.

Tutorial Overview

We have multiple invited talks from academia and industry discussing challenges and opportunities of ML-Assisted architecture design spanning a variety of topics including ML algorithms, datasets, tools & infrastructure, best practices, industry relations, and workforce training. 

In this tutorial, we also introduce ArchGym, an open-source gymnasium and easily extensible framework that connects various machine learning algorithms to architecture simulators. We will provide a hands-on experience of adding a hardware simulator to ArchGym and leveraging various machine learning algorithms (e.g. Reinforcement learning, Bayesian optimization, Genetic algorithm, etc.) for design space exploration. We will also showcase examples of integrating CFU-Playground and Astra-Sim, illustrating the practical implementation of ArchGym.
