For his paper entitled "Evaluation of GPU-Centric Embedded Architectures in the Field of Neuromuscular EMG-Based AI" Mr. Pfenning and his Co-Authors Raul Simpetru, Niklas Pollak, Alessandro Del Vecchio and Dietmar Fey received the Outstanding Paper Award at the 20th International Conference on Appli...

At the SC22 conference last week in Dallas, TX, student teams from all over the world took part in the Student Cluster Competition, a contest that requires operating an HPC system and running a selection of high-performance applications as fast as possible under a strict power constraint. The FAU te...

Creating an energy efficient chip, which can classify ECG signals into healthy and arrhythmical using neural networks, was the goal of the first challenge for disruptive innovations in energy-efficient AI hardware initiated by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). The Project Team „Low-Power Low-Memory Low-Cost ECG signal analysis using ML algorithms (Lo3-ML)“ under the Leadership of Prof. Dr. Dietmar Fey, Dr. Marc Reichenbach (Chair of Computer Science FAU), Prof. Dr. Dr. Robert Weigel (Chair of Electronics FAU), Dr. Marco Breiling (Fraunhofer IIS Erlangen) and Prof. Amelie Hagelauer (Chair of Communications Electronics, University of Bayreuth) won the first price in the category “ASIC 130 nm”.

Each year, the chair of computer architecture offers the “supercomputing” lab lecture, which serves the purpose of preparing a team of six students to participate in the student cluster competition at ISC. In the competition at ISC18, twelve teams from all over the world competed to get the highest performance out of their self-assembled mini-clusters for a set of applications...

The Gauss Award is sponsored by the Gauss Centre for Supercomputing (GCS), which is a collaboration of the German national supercomputing centers at Garching, Jülich and Stuttgart. The winner receives a cash prize of 3,000 €, courtesy of the Gauss Center, which is...

We are happy to announce that HPX version 1.0 has been released. More information can be found in the complete release announcment.

The Chair of Computer Architecture is now member in the "HSA Academic Centers of Excellence" of the HSA (Heterogeneous System Architecture) Foundation. In a joint project with the "Embedded Systems Group" of TU Darmstadt and the chip manufacturer AMD, the chair members Marc Reichenbach and Konrad Hä...
