Research Content of DDNA Lab.
Data-driven (non-von Neumann) processor is the realization of a data-driven execution model in which operations become executable after all of their operands arrive. The data-driven processor can realize multiprocessing without any overheads such as context-switching which is found in sequential (von Neumann type) processors, and thus it can guarantee real-time processing even when multiplicity (e.g. the number of IP packets processed simultaneously) increases as long as the processing loads is under design target. This real-time multiprocessing feature is indispensable for networking processing in which real-time constraints are strictly demanded even when network traffic (i.e. the number of IP packets processed simultaneously) increases. That is, the data-driven processor is inherently suitable for networking processing. Based on the data-driven processor, we are now studying on networking architecture straddling multiple research fields such as networking scheme, processor architecture and circuit implementation. (Domestic and international patents pending)
You have a chance to research extremely unique processor and have a good experience of creation/design/verification/evaluation of the whole system straddling multiple research fields such as networking scheme, processor architecture and circuit implementation.
You can use the latest workstations and storages installed for CAD tools to design VLSI chips. Also, you have personal work space and the latest PC.
We have established a research alliance named SSH alliance. Join in this alliance and take an opportunity to enjoy cross-sectoral interactions and expand your specialty area.
