If you can’t make it to the session but would like to apply to KTH/ETH for 2010-2011, please let me know.

There will be a slower-paced, low-octane version of this talk in my PMP class Tuesday night (Feb. 2, 6:30, EE045) that you are welcome to attend.

Title: “Logic Synthesis Demystified”
Speaker: Ramine Roane  (Abound Logic)

Abstract:
This talk will be a quick tour through logic synthesis techniques from High Level and RTL synthesis, to Boolean optimization and mapping.
It will discuss RTL optimization techniques (which are similar to compiler optimizations), as well as the evolution of Boolean optimization methods from truth-tables to S.O.P. and Boolean Networks (used in SIS), to BDDs (used in VIS), to AND-Inverter-Graphs and the use of SAT solvers (used in ABC), using examples to illustrate the concepts.

Undergraduate RA Position

Approximately 10 hours per week

NIH-Funded Project: Shape-Based Retrieval of 3D Craniofacial Data:

We are developing tools for analysis of 3D data, both 3D meshes and
3D (CT) volumes. We are expected to organize our tools and provide
them to the FaceBase Consortium, sponsored by NIH. The initial work
would include cleaning and organizing already-developed code, producing
documentation (tutorials), and then implementing a GUI,
probably workflow-based, to allow users to easily try our tools.
(This is not trivial; the users are quite varied in skills,
from professional programmers to surgeons.)

Required skills: Java, C/C++, Linux (scripts, makefiles, etc),
calling C and Matlab from Java
Desirable: Matlab, CVS, VTK

Image processing skills would be nice, but not required. We will
teach you.

Can lead to research projects and further employment.

Hello! I am in an Engineering Without Borders project here at UW which aims to develop software for the One Laptop Per Child organization’s XO laptop (www.laptop.org and www.sugarlabs.org). We are looking for anyone who knows or wants to learn Python and is interested in getting some hands-on experience in a project with real impact.

Python is a great language to learn because it is extremely versatile and powerful yet quick and easy to write and run. You will find yourself using it again and again, and it certainly won’t hurt your resume!

This project is also a chance to effect positive change in the developing world and see the results. We have a specific target for our project in Takaungu, Kenya through a grad student in the Education department who recently returned from deploying XO laptops to a village in this region.

Our next meeting is in the Engineering Library on Thursday the 4th at 7:00 PM. We will meet at the big tables behind the front desk, then move up to a study room on the second floor. I hope to see you there, but if you can’t make it, feel free to e-mail me at dylan@cs.washington.edu and I can put you on the mailing list.
