Offer Description

System-on-Chip (SOC) Technologies provide an opportunity to underpin a number of capabilities for AI and related capabilities on platforms. This research, within the context of automotive systems, explores opportunities to design a high-performance RISC-V-based platform to support analytics and AI applications. Part of this research, aspects of cybersecurity for data collection and processing would also be explored. The research methods would range over modelling, design and system-level validation using SOC techniques established by Siemens EDA. Validation criteria would factor in design requirements along with vertical integration features that such platforms would have to interface with in automotive applications.
