Research Projects

ÆTHER is an IST-FET project funded under the 6th framework programme (FP6). Selected under the fourth call in the Advanced Computing Architecture (ACA) of the Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) programme, ÆTHER's main objective is to study novel self-adaptive computing technologies for future embedded and pervasive applications.

The ÆTHER project started January 1st, 2006 for a duration of 36 months.

Microgrids is an NWO project funded under the Glance program. This project investigates a novel approach to micro-architecture that supports massive on-chip concurrency, which is scalable, flexible and amenable to analysis. It has the potential to provide for the management of on-chip resources (processors etc.) so as to autonomously configure a system for performance, power dissipation or fault tolerance.

The Artemis project, which is a cooperation between the University of Amsterdam, Leiden University, Delft University of Technology and Philips Research, studies the design of Network-on-Chip (NoC) based MP-SoCs. Our role in this project constitutes of developing a high-level modeling and simulation framework for system-level design space exploration of these NoC-based MP-SoCs.

Apple-CORE project develops compilers, operating systems and execution platforms to support and evaluate a novel architecture paradigm that can exploit many-core computer systems to the end of silicon. It differs from current approaches by adopting a systematic model of concurrency implemented as instructions in the processors’ ISA (developed in the EU FP6 AETHER project)..
