Abstract

Novel concepts and detailed implementations are crucial for computer engineering research. Moreover, being able to step back and see the connections can lead to exciting and impactful discoveries. With the advancement of VLSI technology, more and more computing elements are closely integrated with the physical systems. Quite often research regarding these cyber-physical systems not only requires the knowledge of the computing systems, but also thorough understanding of the physical systems as well. In this talk, we will discuss exciting research topics from VLSI design to modeling of complex VLSI and physical systems, in which ground-breaking results are achieved by cross-disciplinary approaches. We will also discuss future research directions in this exciting era.
