Our lab is looking for highly self-motivated and brilliant students broadly interested in computer architecture and systems, including but not limited to:

• Neural accelerators
• Memory systems
• Processing in/near memory
• GPU microarchitecture
• Power, thermal, and reliability management

 

The following courses are relevant to our research interests. Students looking for lab opportunities are recommended to take these courses (but not required to take all of them). Strong programming skills are mandatory, e.g., C++, Python, Perl, Verilog. A good candidate should have a minimum GPA of 3.5/4.3, or otherwise the applicant must prove competence.

• EEE3530 or CSI3102 Computer Architecture
• EEE3535 or CSI3101 Operating Systems
• EEE3540 Microprocessors
• EEE3544 System IC Design
• EEE3314 or CSI4108 Artificial Intelligence
• EEE5501 Advanced Programming
• EEE6504 or CSI4104 Compilers
• EEE6510 or CSI6532 Advanced Computer Architecture

 

Eligibility: Applicants interested in joining the lab must have legal residence in South Korea prior to contacting the lab. Please, do not send us emails unless you are legally present in South Korea.
