DESCRIPTION:Title: Continuous Reconfiguration of Polymorphic
	 Hardware\nSpeaker: Adrian Sampson & Chrisopher Batten\nAbstract: The
	 slowing advances in the efficiency of general-purpose machines has given
	 rise to an era of specialized computing. While one-off hardware
	 accelerator designs offer new leaps in efficiency\, they sacrifice
	 flexibility and programmability. We are designing a new kind of
	 reconfigurable architecture based on a programmable memory system and
	 configurable spatial compute fabric. The system is designed for
	 high-frequency reconfiguration based on shifting application demands. It
	 combines general-purpose cores\, reconfigurable arrays of processing
	 elements\, a flexible ensemble of on-chip memories\, and a
	 reconfigurable interface to 3D stacked DRAM. The project aims to
	 approach ASIC-like efficiency by continuously optimizing the system's
	 organization to specialize the computation and storage structures for
	 specific applications.\n\nThis work is in its early stages. It will
	 encompass the collaborative design of the new hardware with a compiler
	 infrastructure to exploit it. This talk will focus on our vision for the
	 project and how PhD students can get involved.
