World Models for Microarchitectural Design Space Exploration

Fri, 01 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Overview

With the rising adoption of ML for design space exploration, current approaches to simulating designs with meaningful fidelity have become a substantial bottleneck for the number of designs that ML-based approaches can evaluate when exploring the design space. This project examines whether world models may offer a faster alternative to traditional approaches to detailed microarchtiectural simulation while maintaining enough fidelity to converge on good designs.

ML for Maintaining Obsolete Digital Systems

Mon, 06 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Overview

Computing systems in high-reliability deployments are often qualified for those deployments at system-level granularity while failures often occur at subsystem-level. Obsolescence poses a high risk to systems of this manner, as failing components often necessitate a complete system redesign or at least re-qualification, which is itself expensive and time-consuming. This project examines whether LLMs can be used to ease this burden by engineering drop-in replacements for failing, obsolete digital components based on the behavior of the original component and the broader design specifications of the system.
