Don Smith
IN PREPARATION
Research Interest
- VLSI design and manufacture including simulation, evaluation,
manufacturability, fault detection, and diagnosis.
- AI-based design-systems applied to real-world problems.
- Massively parallel, fine-grain computer architectures including
hardware/software tools and interfaces.
- Application of massively parallel computing to complex
real-world problems.
Research Projects
- I am a researcher and area coordinator for microlithographic design
on the HPCD Project .
The Hypercomputing and Design Project (HPCD) is an ARPA sponsored
project developing advanced AI-based design methodologies covering a
wide range of applications. The microlithographic area within this
project is investigating the application of design techniques to the
problem of mask and process design for sub-1/4 micro-chip fabrication.
- I am a co-PI of the
Rutgers CAM Project.
This is an ARPA sponsored project designing a cost-effective
general-purpose memory architecture based on concepts drawn from the
areas of associative processing and content addressable memory.
- I am also working in the areas of conceptual design of aircraft and
the design of supersonic and hypersonic inlets. This work is
sponsored by NASA-AMES and by ARPA under
the HPCD Project .
