Research

The promising advantages of functional oxides, as researched in FORTE, could offer great opportunities to overcome the limitations in power, density and performance of reconfigurable fabrics. Our research is to exploit functional oxides to develop hardware architecture and design flow for a digital reconfigurable fabric. The current research is focusing on investigating memristor-based building blocks for reconfigurable FPGAs. These will then be used to develop a full memristor-based design flow for reconfigurable FPGAs
