Research Interests:


The research interests cover mainly the computer architecture and design automation areas:

Self-adaptable and autonomic systems

A self-adaptive and autonomic computing system is a system able to configure, heal, optimize and protect itself without the need for human intervention. Therefore, aim of this research is to develop performance models and prototypes of software and hardware components required to support the operating system and enable the same application to achieve its goals while working on different systems.

Research && Education

how to create a win-win game where research and the students experience are positively influenced one other.

Methodologies for dynamic reconfiguration in embedded system

Aim of this research is the definition of methodologies and tools for implementing dynamic reconfigurable systems, through the exploration of the solution space, in order to evaluate the most effective solutions that are compatible with the design constraints.

Operating System support for reconfigurable computing

Develop an operating system, for FPGA-based architecture, able to determine where a module should be configured, and to provide an interface towards the final user in order to request a hardware application in a simplified way. The operating system has to be able to manage on-demand module configuration on an FPGA while providing a set of high-level abstractions to user applications.

Methodologies for hardware/software co-design of embedded systems

Aim of this research work is the development of a methodology and a set of tools for capturing specifications of control-dominated systems, design space exploration, hardware/software partitioning, co-synthesis and co-simulation.
