VLSI Design

VLSI design, the process of creating integrated circuits, is undergoing a transformation driven by the need for faster, more energy-efficient chips. Current research focuses on developing novel architectures, such as highly parallel, non-von Neumann designs, to improve performance and reduce power consumption, particularly for applications like AI accelerators and robotics. This involves leveraging machine learning techniques, including generative models like diffusion models and GANs, to augment limited training data for improved accuracy in performance prediction and design optimization, and employing sophisticated neural networks for tasks like congestion prediction. These advancements are crucial for enabling the development of next-generation electronic devices and systems.
