About Us

Our research group focuses on the research and development of complex digital integrated circuits implementable in ASIC or FPGA technology. We emphasize efficiency in digital designs, particularly in terms of chip area, performance, power consumption, and reliability of very complex digital systems on chip (SoC).

We're particularly interested in research and development of hardware architectures that efficiently accelerate AI and LLM applications. Additionally, we're involved in software development of web-based EDA and IDE tools for convenient and efficient chip development.
