Summary of Current Research: My
research centers on 1) the design,
implementation, and application of reconfigurable
computing systems, and 2) on processing and transport of media (audio/video) signals.
Reconfigurable systems are highly parallel and offering
fine-grained programmability, often at the sub-word level.
This flexibility makes them ideal emulation platforms and
highly efficient computational structures. As
computational structures are specialized on a
per-application basis, within many application domains,
these systems offer several orders of magnitude higher
cost-performance than conventional processors. Work in my
group involves a coordinated effort on the design of
reconfigurable computing devices and machines, development
of novel programming systems, and application of
reconfigurable computing systems to real-world computing
tasks..
Current projects:
Berkeley Emulation Engine (BEE),
Research Accelerator for Multiple Processors
(RAMP),
Berkeley Reconfigurable Architectures,
Software, and Systems (BRASS),
and the
GSRC Home Media Gateway.
