The current computer architecture has moved towards the multi/many-core structure. However, the algorithms in the current sequential dense numerical linear algebra libraries (e.g. LAPACK) do not parallelize well on multi/many-core…
Reducing delay, power consumption, and chip area of a logic circuit are the main targets of a designer. Most of the times, the designer sacrifices power consumption and chip area to improve delay for a given technology node. To overcome…
The end of Moore's Law and Dennard scaling has fundamentally changed the economics of computer architecture. With transistor scaling delivering diminishing returns, architectural innovation is now the primary - and perhaps only - remaining…
Even if Moore's Law continues to hold, it will take about 250 years to fill the performance gap between present-day computer and the ultimate computer determined from the laws of physics alone. Information processing technology in the…
Machine learning solutions, in particular those based on deep learning methods, form an underpinning of the current revolution in "artificial intelligence" that has dominated popular press headlines and is having a significant influence on…
The computing performance today is developing mainly using parallelized sequential computing, in many forms. The paper scrutinizes whether the performance of that type of computing has an upper limit. The simple considerations point out…
Photonic technologies have shown a promising way to build high-speed and high-energy-efficiency neural network accelerators. In previously presented photonic neural networks, architectures are mainly designed for fully-connected layers.…
Additive Layer Manufacturing (ALM), also broadly known as 3D printing, is a new technology to produce 3D objects. As an opposite approach to the conventional subtractive manufacturing process, 3D objects are created by adding thin material…
In this tutorial-style review we discuss basic concepts of coupled cluster theory and recent developments that increase its computational efficiency for calculations of molecules, solids and materials in general. We will touch upon the…
In computational design and fabrication, neural networks are becoming important surrogates for bulky forward simulations. A long-standing, intertwined question is that of inverse design: how to compute a design that satisfies a desired…
Optimal multiple sequence alignment by dynamic programming, like many highly dimensional scientific computing problems, has failed to benefit from the improvements in computing performance brought about by multi-processor systems, due to…
Matrix multiplication is integral to various scientific and engineering disciplines, including machine learning, image processing, and gaming. With the increasing data volumes in areas like machine learning, the demand for efficient…
Scaling-up from prototype systems to dense arrays of ions on chip, or vast networks of ions connected by photonic channels, will require developing entirely new technologies that combine miniaturized ion trapping systems with devices to…
The acceleration of sparse matrix computations on modern many-core processors, such as the graphics processing units (GPUs), has been recognized and studied over a decade. Significant performance enhancements have been achieved for many…
Stochastic computing (SC) is an emerging computing technique that promises high density, low power, and error tolerant solutions. In SC, values are encoded as unary bitstreams and SC arithmetic circuits operate on one or more bitstreams. In…
This essay investigates the role of cost in the development and production of secure integrated circuits. Initially, I make a small introduction on hardware attacks on smart cards and some of the reasons behind them. Subsequently, I…
3D printing has long been a technology for industry professionals and enthusiasts willing to tinker or even build their own machines. This stands in stark contrast to today's market, where recent developments have prioritized ease of use to…
Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs) provide superior speed, bandwidth, and energy efficiency, making them ideal for communication, sensing, and quantum computing applications. Despite their potential, PIC design workflows and integration…
Split manufacturing (SM) seeks to protect against piracy of intellectual property (IP) in chip designs. Here we propose a scheme to manipulate both placement and routing in an intertwined manner, thereby increasing the resilience of SM…
Modern general-purpose accelerators integrate a large number of programmable area- and energy-efficient processing elements (PEs), to deliver high performance while meeting stringent power delivery and thermal dissipation constraints. In…
