地 点：张江校区微电子楼369室 Abstract
The increasing adoption of reconfigurable technologies in data centres has led to growing interest in their capabilities in providing energy-efficient solutions to demanding computations. This talk presents recent research on computational acceleration of earth system modelling based on reconfigurable technologies, targeting dataflow engines containing field programmable gate arrays. The topics covered include development methods involving architectures and precision analysis for modelling atmospheric variables with chaotic behaviour, and for finding the solution of global shallow water equations. This work is based on research collaboration between Imperial College, University of Oxford and Tsinghua University. Biography
Dr Wayne Luk is Professor of Computer Engineering at Imperial College London. He founded and leads the Computer Systems Section and the Custom Computing Group in Department of Computing, and was Visiting Professor at Stanford University and Queen's University Belfast. His research interests include reconfigurable computing, field-programmable technology, and design automation. He developed hardware compilation techniques based on syntax-directed translation, pipeline vectorization, and source-level transformation; he contributed to optimizations for run-time reconfiguration, custom instruction processors, and programmable embedded-block architecture for field-programmable devices. He received many awards at international conferences, including FPL (2004, 2007, 2008, 2010), ERSA (2004), FPT (2005, 2008), ASAP (2008), SAMOS (2008), and SPL (2008, 2009). He led a team winning two Platform Grants from UK Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, and a Research Excellence Award from Imperial College. He is a Fellow of the IEEE and a Fellow of the BCS. He received his MA, MSc and DPhil degrees from University of Oxford. |
