Cryptography for Secure Computing: A New Hardware Acceleration Opportunity
Big Data and artificial intelligence have empowered the data-driven computing paradigm, in which data become the most precious resources. Specifically, if one could make use of data not only of herself, but also from other sources to constitute larger datasets, it...
20 years of NoCs
Twenty years ago research into networks-on-chip (NoCs) was launched with the publication of the foundational Dally and Towles paper, “Route Packets not Wires,” in the Design Automation Conference (DAC) in June 2001. In this blog post, I explore the evolution of...
Nanoscale Optoelectronic AI Processing
In a previous blog post, we summarized some advances in optical computing that enable the implementation of low-energy optical-convolutional layers using phase masks and angle-sensitive pixels. Such approaches also present multiple challenges, such as lack of...
Data Engineering for Everyone
The rise of open-source software necessitated a software-engineering revolution (new standards, tools, licenses, etc.) to overcome the problems facing large distributed teams working on enormous code bases. Today, machine learning (ML) builds atop this vibrant and...Subscribe
