Learning outcomes
Apply the knowledge acquired in the Computer Architecture M course to independently carry out an in-depth activity on a topic agreed with the lecturer in charge of the course.
Course contents
Projects of power management of systems and processors for high-performance computing systems.
Projects of RISC-V based computing architectures and low level software layers (Linux, RTOS, NUTTX, FreeRTOS, ROS, Compilers) for Cyber Physical System (CPS) applications.
Projects of RISC-V based computing architectures and low level software layers to support zero-trust computing.
Neuromorphic / braininspired computing architecture projects and their use in Cyber Physical System (CPS) applications.
Readings/Bibliography
Recommended readings will be provided to the students upon selection of the project subject.
Teaching methods
Students are partitioned in teams of 2 to 4. They meet weekly in the Lab.
Tutors transfer the knowledge supporting the design activity with hands-on demonstrations.
Eventually each team selects or proposes a project. The project is implemented in the lab with tutor support.
This short course aims to set up a harmonized "team-of-teams" , whith intra-team and inter-team co-operation, addressing a common project.
Assessment methods
Students in groups of 2-4 are invited to define their own ecosystem of interacting objects and will then design an application supported by such ecosystem.
The final examination consists of a joint demonstration and an individual discussion about the proposed project. A short report is required by each team.
Teaching tools
Project specific tools will be suggested to each team.
In considerazione della tipologia di attività e dei metodi didattici adottati, la frequenza di questa attività formativa richiede la preventiva partecipazione di tutti gli studenti ai Moduli 1 e 2 di formazione sulla sicurezza nei luoghi di studio, in modalità e-learning.
