Researchers: Alexandre Truppel, Mengchu Li, Meng Lian, Yushen Zhang, Zhidan Zheng, Siyuan Liang

We develop design automation solutions for emerging technologies that demonstrate the potential of large-scale integration and call for the support of design automation. Our research covers scheduling, binding, routing, placement, reliability, and testing.

The emerging technologies that we have worked on include:

Design automation for microfluidics

Design automation for optical networks-on-chip

Design automation for printed electronics

Funded projects in the direction of design automation for microfluidics:

• "Physical Design for Microfluidic Large-Scale Integration with Partitioning and Floorplanning"
  DFG project, since 2023
• "Design and Integration of Test Module for Microfluidic Large-Scale Integration (mLSI)"
  DFG project, since 2021

Funded projects in the direction of design automation for optical networks-on-chip:

• "Bandwidth Maximization and Allocation for Wavelength-Routed Optical Networks-on-Chip (WRONoC)"
  DFG project, since 2023
• "Combining Topology Synthesis and Physical Design for Wavelength-Routed Optical Networks-on-Chip (WRONoC) — Design Automation Using Physical Layout Templates"
  DFG project, since 2020
