Research Themes

The general research topics of the TU Delft computer engineering  include computer hardware, software, and networks. More specifically the computer engineering research focuses in the following areas:

• Hardware: Computer architecture, microarchitectures, digital design, parallel vector and media processors, embedded processors, SoCs, VLSI design, computer arithmetic, low power designs, reconfigurable processors, feed forward neural networks (threshold logic), memory and logic testing, design for testability.
• Software: backend compilers, system software, software for automatic synthesis, performance and software tools, hardware software co-design, software simulators, code instrumentations and performance enhancement tolls, design space exploration software for computer architectures and  machine organizations, placement and routing algorithms, physical desing, binary translators.
• Networks: Computer architecture for Network processors, interconnection networks, internet and web processing, mixed optical/electronic switches, distributed processing, ubiquitous (i.e., anywhere and anytime) and unobtrusive (i.e., without much user intervention) communication environments.
• Speculative research: nano computing, chaotic computational systems, threshold logic processors, non conventional computer architectures, interracting  migrating processes.
