Happy Birthday, RISC-V International ! 10 years old today! What an incredible first decade it's been - thanks to the whole community for bringing us along this far: riscv.org/2020/05/happy-…

New SonicBOOM features include auto-predication of short forward branches, a multi-load load/store unit, a TAGE-L (loop) predictor, RVC compressed support, RoCC co-processor support, and a FireSim/FPGA+Dromajo ISA model checker for verification (Fromajo 🧀)!

Incremental compile for HW simulations & synthesis!! But now how am I suppose to schedule my coffee breaks?

I reverse-engineered the register file in the Intel 8086 microprocessor. Each register cell is static, based on two inverters in a loop. Some registers are multi-ported, more complexity than I expected in a 42-year-old processor. righto.com/2020/07/the-in…

I have been elected to represent individuals and the community on the RISC-V International Board of Directors. Get in touch if you have any topics you want to get addressed! Looking forward to be your voice on the board and this exciting role 🥰

Getting the traditional #HotChips2020 experience with a hot California summer and an ice cream bar for final break :)

Super exciting news: "Esperanto Technologies to Reveal Chip with 1000+ Cores at RISC-V Summit!" (spoiler alert: I (Chris) worked on ET-Maxion, which is BOOM-derived💥!) Esperanto Technologies news.ycombinator.com/item?id=253109… esperanto.ai/esperanto-tech…

AI news! Esperanto Unveils ML Chip with Nearly 1,100 RISC-V Cores at the RISC-V Summit December 8, 2020. In HPCWire. Esperanto Technologies RISC-V協会 RISC-V International #ML #AI #DL hpcwire.com/2020/12/08/esp…

Hotchips 2021 advance program online now! Hot Chips Hear Esperanto Technologies Chairman and Founder Dave Ditzel Dave Ditzel speak on "Accelerating ML Recommendation with over a Thousand RISC-V/Tensor Processors on Esperanto’s ET-SoC-1 Chip" August 24. hotchips.org/advance-progra…

Pretty neat to see this stuff listed on wikichip, although it is a little Spartan at the moment. 🤔 T0 and Rocket especially deserve more attention. en.wikichip.org/wiki/uc_berkel…

FireSim 1.12 and Chipyard 1.5 Released! Check 'em out. github.com/firesim/firesi… github.com/ucb-bar/chipya…

Currently enjoying teaching Agile Hardware Design, and we are happy to open-source all of our materials & lecture recordings: classes.soe.ucsc.edu/cse293/Winter2…

VLC just added some patches to support the recently minted RISC-V Vector spec! Super cool! (via redd.it/slei7b)
