The First China RISC-V Forum
November 12-13
Lecture Hall, 3F, CII Building, Tsinghua Shenzhen International Graduate School, University Town, Nanshan District, Shenzhen·China
RISC-V is growing up very fast in China these years, and the open source silicon development ecosystem is getting more and more improved. It shows up at the emerging areas such as IoT, AI, Self-driving, edge computing and makes a lot of innovation and changes from computer architecture ISA to system SW. It is a clear trend that microprocessor design and development based the open source ISA becomes more and more important in IT industry.
In the 2019 China RISC-V forum (https://crvf2019.github.io/index_en.htm), we want to identify the challenges in building an open and free ecosystem of RISC-V, and pay special attention to the industrial and academic efforts, innovations and projects on RISC-V in China, including but not limited to FPGA and IC based chip design (both high performance and low-power), compiler and system software support, design tool flow, domain specific design and application, and so on.
We invite practitioners, academicians, and researchers who are passionate about advancing RISC-V ecosystem to join us. Register Link： https://www.wjx.top/jq/46235372.aspx
