Great news !

Our work on the first-ever-effort to systematically analyze and seal power-side channels on RISC-V microprocessors receives the best paper award at HOST2020. Thanks to the wonderful collaborators Muhammad Arsath K F Rahul Boddhuna Chester Rebeiro. RISC-V International ShaktiProcessors

Congrats to Chester Rebeiro Muhammad Arsath K F @VinodG93 Rahul Boddhuna for the best paper award. They are also part of the key members of the SHAKTI effort and have proposed the first SHAKTI processor variant that’s resistant to power side-channels.

Side channel attack resistant Shakti processors.

InCore just won the India Electronics and Semiconductor Association Innovation award for fabless semi companies

Paper alert - You don't need to build separate latency cost models for each mobile platform. Turns out, with a good representation, a single model sufficiently generalizes across a wide range of mobile devices. Paper: ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/92512… Code: github.com/iitm-sysdl/Gen…

A RISC-V International core verification *flow* that is as smooth as a RiVer. Way to go Incore Semiconductors. #OpenSource #riscv

The man with the golden stick. The pride of our nation. Hearty congrats Neeraj. Welcome to the firsts club :-) x.com/i/events/14239…

Hon'ble MoS for Electronics & IT, Shri Rajeev Chandrasekhar (Parody) launched the Digital India RISCV (DIR-V) Program. It is a dream come true for project ShaktiProcessors of IIT Madras & VEGA Processors of C-DAC India. Prof V Kamakoti, Director, IIT Madras will be the Chief Architect of the program

#ShaktiProcessor FTW! Proud moment to all existing and past team members: neelgala @arjunmenon42 Vinod Ganesan Rahul Boddhuna vishvesh Dr.Shankar and many others from IIT Madras

Congratulations to my student Sai Sai for winning the Prime Minister's PhD Research Fellowship 🎊🎉! Super proud. Sai's research looks at the security hardening of contemporary applications and incrementally moving towards secure-by-construction software.

A momentous start for AI4Bharat: a community from IITM determined to bring parity wrt English in AI for Indian languages with #OpenSource, datasets, models, and apps. Hearty wishes to the team for the launch of Nilekani Center with generous contributions from Nandan Nilekani

Thanks to the visionary whose observational predictions became one of the most significant laws driving human progress!

Shakti FTW 🏆

Happy to see the culmination of our efforts Sarvam AI in the last few months bear fruit. Like we mention, this is just v0.1 and there’s a long way to go :) Look forward to critical feedback and questions from the community for improving future models!

Sridhar Vembu You should know about our ShaktiProcessors team. We built the first homegrown microprocessor in India, and I am happy to say I was part of the 5 member team. The core cracked team has transitioned to start-up Incore Semiconductors - you should check them out. I transitioned to DL and LLMs

Vinod Ganesan Sridhar Vembu ShaktiProcessors Incore Semiconductors Sridhar Vembu Would love to discuss with you on what we are building at InCore

It’s amazing to see Sarvam AI releasing the conversational AI platform. Many of us have worked on this in the last several months which many customers have been piloting and adopting stably and rapidly.

Aviral Bhatnagar There’s Incore Semiconductors trying to unlock the real potential by building on the bedrock of Indian fabless semiconductor promise incepted by ShaktiProcessors @ IITM. Check them out. Arjun
