This $375,022 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) aims to develop novel computing architectures and processing techniques to enable efficient, autonomous edge intelligence for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. The key research thrusts include: Designing non-Von Neumann architectures that integrate data conversion and processing capabilities to address data movement challenges between on/off-chip and processors. Implementing processing units for both general and domain-specific computations to improve metrics like energy efficiency and performance. The research will involve extensive modeling and simulation to evaluate the proposed architectures' functionalities and performance, with the goal of establishing lightweight, heterogeneous edge intelligence capable of autonomously processing data-intensive tasks in energy-constrained environments. This work is expected to advance foundational computing schemes and bring the vision of accommodating over a trillion interconnected IoT devices closer to reality. The award period runs from August 15, 2024 to December 31, 2026, and the University of Illinois is the primary awardee.
