HiWi / WiHi job offers

• Abstract TLM-based Model for on-Chip Interconnects

  Supervisor: Dr.-Ing. Jan Moritz Joseph
  Description: Using exsiting low-level models for on-chip interconnects, higher-level models can be deduced. Here, we will use our existing ratatoskr open-source simulator on cycle-accurate abstraction level to model the interconnect on a transaction-level model (TLM) accouting for the network topology and the network congestion. Performance and power are to be estimated.
  
  

• Hardware-Security: IP Integrity Protection

  Description: Here at the Chair for Software for Systems on Silicon (SSS), we are looking into novel ways of securing hardware designs (in particular processor cores) against hardware Trojans, taking the complexity of modern circuits into account.
  Supervisor: Dominik Šišejković
  
  

• Hardware Security: Secure Processor Design

  Supervisor: Lennart Reimann
  Description: In this work we would like to address the development and evaluation of tools to elaborate and/or quantify the security properties of a processor design. The properties Confidentiality, Integrity (, Availability) and Authenticity (CI[A]A) need to be protected.
  
  

• HiWi/WiHi jobs for Summer 2021

  Supervisor: Dr. Haris Kremo
  Description: Chair for Distributed Signal Processing offers multiple HiWi positions to develop laboratory exercises for the course titled Signal Processing for Mobile Communications: Extended Transceiver Design. The course treats parts of the transmitter-receiver chain beyond simple signal transmission and detection covered in an earlier course. The topics include synchronization, channel estimation, error correction coding, etc. The positions are offered for preferably MS students in the Summer 2021 semester.
  
  

• Machine Learning for Security

  Supervisor: Dominik Šišejković
  Description: In the context of this work, we will address some selected challenges from the area of hardware security by applying modern machine learning techniques.
  
  

• Neuroflow: SW/HW-Interfaces for Neuromorphic Computing

  Supervisor: Felix Staudigl
  Description: In the context of this work, we will invent a novel way of computation in neuromorphic devices. These problems are closely related to existing soltions for Google's TPU-style way of data processing. Their approaches must be translated into the neuromorphic world.
  
  

• Neuromorphic Hardware Security

  Supervisor: Felix Staudigl
  Description: This Master/Bachelor Thesis aims to investigate novel Hardware Security vulnerabilities and their countermeasure of neuromorphic computing architecture. In particular, the student will have the unique opportunity to work with the real ReRAM crossbars to perform measurements within our labs.
  
  

• Neuromorphic Virtual Platforms

  Supervisor: Felix Staudigl
  Description: This Master/Bachelor Thesis aims to develop a virtual prototype to perform a system exploration concerning parameters like power consumption and performance. The virtual prototype will be implemented in C++ together with SystemC/TLM.
  
  

• NoC design-space exploration for neuromorphic massive multicore systems

  Supervisor: Dr.-Ing. Jan Moritz Joseph
  Description: The goal of this thesis is to extend a SystemC simulator to model NoCs with a fast and abstract performance model. The model shall cover the state of routers in slices of time. Input bandwidth, output bandwidth and network latency must be estimated.
  
  

• RISCV plus TensorFlowLite Hardware Platform

  Supervisor: PhD-Ing. Melvin Galicia
  Description: RISCV processors have gained a good level of maturity in the academia and they are trying to breakthrough in the industry. Attaching  RISCV processors to booming commercial technologies like maching learning software is a very promising idea. The job is to bring to life a realization of a platform, where TensorFlow-Lite framework can be compiled and run in an actual RISCV processor.
