This National Science Foundation (NSF) CAREER Program award under the Integrative Activities (CFDA 47.083) program provides $252,210 to Iowa State University of Science and Technology to develop efficient and scalable intelligent hardware systems for advancing artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. The project aims to create a novel system architecture by integrating emerging spintronics devices and circuits with deterministic silicon components to enable energy-efficient non-Von Neumann computing for accelerating critical AI operations. The project will also design a versatile hardware platform supporting a broad range of AI applications, including deep neural networks and neuro-symbolic models, to address challenges of scalability and flexibility associated with stochastic computation. The award, effective from January 15, 2025, through December 31, 2029, supports research, education, and outreach efforts to advance AI literacy and cultivate a cross-disciplinary workforce in AI and microelectronics.
