Structure: Research Groups
The group's work covers the various stages from R&D up to innovation, in a wide range of subjects, with the purpose of providing technological solutions in the field of integrated systems. Therefore, the main lines of research are as follows:
- Microelectronics: Design of variation-tolerant circuits (process, temperature, pressure, ageing and radiation) and VLSI.
- Specific, high-spec digital architectures on reconfigurable platforms (FPGAs). Hardware acceleration.
- EDA tools for designing electronic systems.
- Design of embedded systems, wireless sensor networks, cognitive radio and applications with these technologies, including optimising performance, security and energy consumption.
- Optimising energy in data centres.
- Energy smart systems
- High-performance digital architectures
- Microelectronics: Design and EDA tools
- System on-chip (SoC) Design and consumption optimization
Members of the ISL have taken part in a large number of national and international projects, both competitive projects and collaboration agreements with companies. There is also extensive activity on several Technology Platforms, nationally and Europe (Security ¿eSEC¿, Construction ¿PTEC¿, TIC ¿PLANETIC and ARTEMIS¿), the lab is a member of the HiPEAC Network (European Network of Excellence on High Performance and Embedded Architecture and Compilation) and the SKA worldwide consortium (Square Kilometre Array) for the construction of the SKA super radio telescope which will have a one square kilometre surface. Some important projects are as follows: Nanometric CMOS circuits variation tolerance; Systems HW acceleration in the field of Computational Fluid Dynamics; Wireless sensor networks, development of IoT services; Early warning systems for road safety, and Monitoring critical structures.
The group also has two licensed patents, showing its commitment to the transfer of knowledge generated by the research results to industry and society.
