The talk entitled “Energy-awareness in compute acceleration: The role of FPGAs“, will be presented by Prof. Shreejith Shanker on October 30, at 11:30, in room B012, and will be moderated by Prof. Tiago Carvalho (DEI).

Abstract:

“The talk will cover a set of projects that my team at TCD is working on, spanning embedded and distributed systems to high-performance media workflows, and how FPGAs are enabling an energy-performance trade-off in these applications.”

About the Speaker:

Dr. Shreejith Shanker is an Assistant Professor of Reconfigurable Computing at Trinity College Dublin, Ireland and leads the research group on reconfigurable architectures, accelerators and workflows. His research interests include reconfigurable and adaptive computing architectures, in-network computing, post-production media workflows, design automation tools and distributed embedded systems, with a focus on performance-energy trade-off and hardware-software codesign approaches.
