W04.1 Open Source Hardware Technologies
Open Source Hardware (HW) is becoming de facto an industrial standard with an increasing population of available IPs that range from ultra-low-power edge-computing platforms to high-performance, high-end systems. Particularly, RISC-V systems arise interest among processors developers and users thanks to it simple and extendable, yet performant instruction-set architecture (ISA) among a wide range of performance requirements. In this session, alongside a strategic view on RISC-V in the industry, several IPs will be presented to show how open source is shaping the future of academic and industrial solutions. There will be showcases on open source artificial intelligence architectures as well as secure microprocessors.
W04.1.1 Open Source HW for IoT and its impact on the Industrial Ecosystem: the PULP Experience
W04.1.2 RISC-V & accelerators: enabling variable precision FP computing
W04.1.3 lowRISC’s Collaborative Framework for Open Source Silicon Design
W04.1.4 Panel with speakers on Open Source HW technologies.
Q&A session with the audience and panel discussion on Open Source HW technologies.
