Abstract:
Neste seminário é apresentada uma arquitectura inovadora para efectuar a simulação por hardware de circuitos digitais. Esta arquitectura baseia-se no recurso a uma unidade de processamento desenvolvida em FPGA que é composta por um datapath virtual, reconfigurável e com funcionamento em pipeline. Devido ao datapath virtual, esta solução permite simular circuitos com mais portas lógicas do que as existentes no hardware. O circuito é pré-processado por software, de forma a criar uma estrutura de dados que irá configurar o datapath virtual. Devido à arquitectura escolhida, este processamento substitui os elevados custos de mapeamento na FPGA. O simulador foi testado com os benchmarks ISCAS’85, sendo os seus resultados comparados com dois simuladores por software existentes no mercado. Os resultados obtidos permitem constatar que a arquitectura proposta proporciona reduções do tempo de simulação que são sempre superiores a duas ordens de grandeza.

Upcoming Events
Mathematics, Physics & Machine Learning Seminar Series (Online)
The Mathematics, Physics & Machine Learning seminar series has started on October 2020 and runs until March 2021.
The seminars aim to bring together mathematicians and physicists interested in machine learning (ML) with ML and AI experts interested in mathematics and physics, with the goal of introducing innovative Mathematics and Physics-inspired techniques in Machine Learning and, reciprocally, applying Machine Learning to problems in Mathematics and Physics.
Attendance is free but registration is required.

International European Conference on Parallel and Distributed Computing
The 27th International European Conference on Parallel and Distributed Computing (Euro-Par 2021) will take from August 30 to September 3 2021 in Lisbon.
Euro-Par is the prime European conference covering all aspects of parallel and distributed processing, ranging from theory to practice, from small to the largest parallel and distributed systems and infrastructures, from fundamental computational problems to full-fledged applications, from architecture, compiler, language and interface design and implementation, to tools, support infrastructures, and application performance aspects.
The 2021 edition of Euro-Par will be organized as a collaboration between INESC-ID and Instituto Superior Técnico (IST).
