Available Research Topics
Design of Matrix Processing Unit on an Open Source Processor†
Research Outline†
We are going to use RISC-V the latest free processor destributed in here.
The research step will be;
- Understanding tool chain, and boot scheme
- Write a small program on the simulater
- Understanding Chisel hardware description language
- Understanding hardware components
- Add new instructions and arithmetic units for matrix operation
Expected Output†
You will write 4 documents (that will be used to wrinte your thesis) show in below
- Instruction guide running RISC-V simulator
- Overview of datapath for RISC-V processor
- How to modify datapath, to add instructions
- Specification of matrix multiplication unit
- And your theses
