In this module, a design and implementation assignment, embedded in a concrete, extensive, and challenging development project is to be solved self-reliantly in team work. This assignment conduces to apply gained methods and knowledge in the realm of computer architecture design and is connected to current research topics of the AES group. The study is to be done under as realistic and work-live compliant conditions as possible, including planning, design, implementation, management, coordination, and presentation of work and results of the concrete team work.
Exemplary, the following topics are possible:
- Map an embedded single-threaded application to an embedded multi-core platform.
- Speed-up an application by using FPGA or GPU technology.
- Speed-up an embedded system by analyzing and implementing processor and architecture extensions.
