Participation of Fourth-Year Students in the 30th PARTHENON Workshop

Ando, a first-year master’s student, and Nakamura, a fourth-year undergraduate student, participated in the 30th PARTHENON Workshop, organized by the nonprofit PARTHENON Society, held at the Tokyo Campus of the Institute for Small Business Management and Technology, Organization for Small & Medium Enterprises and Regional Innovation, JAPAN, from Friday, August 28 to Sunday, August 30 (Tsutsui also participated). They designed hardware using the hardware description language NSL, developed C programs to run on the SN/X CPU, which was also designed using NSL, and implemented the resulting hardware/software systems on the DE10-Lite platform. They also gained hands-on experience with logic synthesis, placement and routing, GDS generation, and static timing analysis (STA) using the Coriolis Open EDA Tool.

Morikawa, Sakaki, and Hori, fourth-year undergraduate students, participated in the 27th PARTHENON Workshop, organized by the nonprofit PARTHENON Society, held at
the Tokyo Campus of the Institute for Small Business Management and Technology (Organization for Small & Medium Enterprises and Regional Innovation) from Thursday, August 29 to Saturday, August 31 (Tsutsui also participated). They implemented systems they designed on the DE10-Lite platform using the hardware description language NSL and a CPU designed using NSL.

The 49th PARTHENON Technical Society Conference @ Meiji University Ikuta Campus

On December 23, M1 student Chenyu Zhao presented the following paper at the 49th Parthenon Technical Society Conference held at Meiji University Ikuta campus. This presentation was selected for the Outstanding Presentation Award. It seems that Zhao will later receive a PARTHENON T-shirt.

40th PARTHENON Technical Society Conference

At the 40th PARTHENON Technical Society Conference which was held in Kyoto University on Sep. 29, Assoc. Prof. Hiroshi Tsutsui reported Collaborative Work for Embedded Systems Training (Phase-2) held at Universities’ Research Centre (URC), the University of Yangon.

Collaborative Work for Embedded Systems Training at the University of Yangon

Assoc. Prof. Tsutsui participated Collaborative Work for Embedded Systems Training (Phase-2) held at Universities’ Research Centre (URC), the University of Yangon. The workshop was held on 20 Aug. to 5 Sep. He gave some lectures and exercises using DE0 FPGA board. The topic where he involved was related to hardware description languages mainly targeting NSL and C programming for a tiny embedded processor, SN/X.
