Popis: Since 2013, the PULP (Parallel Ultra-Low Power) Platform project has been one of the most active and successful initiatives in designing research IPs and releasing them as open-source. Its portfolio now ranges from processor cores to network-on-chips, peripherals, SoC templates, and full hardware accelerators. In this article, we focus on the PULP experience designing heterogeneous AI acceleration SoCs - an endeavour encompassing SoC architecture definition; development, verification, and integration of acceleration IPs; front- and back-end VLSI design; testing; development of AI deployment software.
