Berkeley Lab – California – on Chip) designs, and evaluate their merit for emerging computational workloads for the purpose of maximizing performance and energy efficiency. This work will have broad impact on high performance and other larger-scale computing for critical applications for society and science. The successful applicant will need to be familiar with computer architecture and have skills in hardware design in Verilog and use of CAD/EDA tools. It is desirable if the applicant has familiarity with higher-level… hardware design languages such as CHISEL, PyRTL, PyMTL or other HDLs. It is also beneficial if the candidate has experience with architectural simulators (GEM5 or FPGA emulation for example). Using those skills, the successful applicant will design accelerators for computate, memory, or data transfer for key application kernels to demonstrate the merit of this approach. The applicant will also make key intellectual contributions and consequently publish papers to the emerging field of extreme…
