Time: 16:00 Room: S5
Abstract
An intense period of innovation is driving the automotive supply chain to reimagine
compute architectures, requiring companies to take more control of their computing
platforms, specifying new architectures based on the demands, constraints and
opportunities of automotive applications.
RISC-V is an open standard Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) that enables companies the
freedom to design their best possible processors for their application. Over 10 billion
RISC-V cores have already shipped, with this adoption spreading innovation across all
domains and performance points.
The RISC-V ecosystem of member companies delivers the technologies and tools to develop
these new platforms with flexible multi-sourcing across a range of development options
from buying chips, to licensing processor IP, to designing your own cores. Joining as a
member of RISC-V enables you to be part of the conversations shaping the future of the
standard.
RISC-V enables design flexibility and freedom, delivering levels of customisation not
possible with other compute architectures.Come to this talk by Peter Lewin, the Chair of
the Automotive Special Interest Group, to find out more about RISC-V and its ecosystem
and how it can enable the next generation of automotive computing.
