Book Description
This book explores and motivates the need for building homogeneous and heterogeneous multi-core systems for machine learning to enable flexibility and energy-efficiency. Coverage focuses on a key aspect of the challenges of (extreme-)edge-computing, i.e., design of energy-efficient and flexible hardware architectures, and hardware-software co-optimization strategies to enable early design space exploration of hardware architectures. The authors investigate possible design solutions for building single-core specialized hardware accelerators for machine learning and motivates the need for building homogeneous and heterogeneous multi-core systems to enable flexibility and energy-efficiency. The advantages of scaling to heterogeneous multi-core systems are shown through the implementation of multiple test chips and architectural optimizations.

About the Author
Vikram Jain received his M.Sc degree in Embedded Electronics Systems Design (EESD) from Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, in 2018, and his PhD degree in Electrical Engineering from KU Leuven, Belgium, in 2023. His PhD research was in implementation of energy efficient digital acceleration and RISC-V processors for machine learning applications at the edge. He was also a visiting researcher at the IIS lab in ETH Zurich working on implementation of networks-on-chip. He is currently a postdoctoral researcher at SpeciaLIzed Computing Ecosystems (SLICE) lab and Berkeley Wireless Research Center (BWRC) in University of California, Berkeley, working on heterogeneous integration and chiplet architectures for high-performance computing. He is a recipient of the SSCS Predoctoral Achievement Award in 2023, the SSCS travel grant in 2022, the Lars Pareto travel grant in 2019, and a prestigious research fellowship from Swedish Institute (SI) in 2016 and 2017.
Marian Verhelst is a full professor at the MICAS laboratories of KU Leuven and a research director at IMEC.
