Building an Si2 Special Interest Group for the
AI/ML Design Automation Ecosystem

    

 




Dr. Leigh Anne Clevenger
Design Automation Data Scientist
Silicon Integration Initiative

Join us to discuss AI/ML best practices for an Si2 Design Automation Ecosystems Special Interest Group. What characteristics are required to develop production AI/ML solutions, while focusing R&D on differentiating technologies? How can we utilize data produced by sensors, design data, software clicks, and real-time analysis mined for ML? What prototypes and standards can be developed under the Si2 R&D Joint Venture Anti-trust Guidelines?

What You'll Learn

  • Si2 Special Interest Groups: how are they created, who can participate, and how do they advance the industry?
  • Knowledge and skills sharing on AI/ML best practices
  • Needs Investigation: Define top ten ways to capitalize on AI/ML, and propose prototype projects
  • Roadmap: develop proposals to fill standardds and funding gaps

Si2 OpenAccess Partitions:
How Fast Can We Go?  
 





 


Dr. W. Rhett Davis
Professor
NC State University
Data Model 6, the newest release of Si2 OpenAccess, will help the industry 
keep pace with cloud migration through multi-threaded and multi-process 
parallel applications. Using a sample Intel Xenon processor and test application,
see how to trace a sample design and the resulting changes in speed, with 
and without oaPartitions.
What You’ll Learn
  • What is an appropriate example machine
  • How to create and run a test set up
  • Speedup results of 10X with partitions/processes
