Design automation for secure, reliable and energy efficient embedded processors. This project seeks to create a methodology to design and generate processors which are both secure, reliable and energy efficient for deployment in Internet of Things (IoT) systems, which require little on-going maintenance. In such systems, both security and reliability are paramount, particularly in medical devices, control devices in critical machinery, financial transactions and automotive electronics.

This project seeks to create a methodology to design and generate processors which are both secure, reliable and energy efficient for deployment in Internet of Things (IoT) systems, which require little on-going maintenance. In such systems, both security and reliability are paramount, particularly in medical devices, control devices in critical machinery, financial transactions and automotive electronics. The project will use an open RISC-V processor which is sufficiently flexible to function as a base processor, with a myriad of tools such as compilers and debuggers available. Reliable computing machinery will enable systems to work in hostile environments and be functionally correct for longer.Read moreRead less
