Research Projects at VLSI System and Computation Lab

This page consists of all major research projects of VLSI System and Computation Lab (VSCLAB) at UC Riverside (2002 – now). In the past several years, the VSCLAB has focused on several important and emerging research areas shown below and made a number of contributions in each of the areas. Some of the projects have leaded to the CAD tools developed for free download (binary or source codes) to promote the research and technology transfer.
