Research funding is prize for university kprogramme investigating system energy use
The collaborative project between UltraSoC and the University of Cambridge, called spEEDO (Energy Efficiency through Debug suppOrt), will conduct research to identify the potential of increasing energy efficiency in electronic systems. The project will use UltraSoC’s ground-breaking debug technology allowing detailed information about the behavior and energy usage of these systems to be measured.
The competition, organised by TSB, encourages technologies which can reduce the mounting energy burden of computing and communications devices and systems.
The project will improve current approaches that use imprecise techniques and have a limited ability to determine energy consumption.
UltraSoC, which is backed by investment company Octopus, is pioneering advanced debugging technology which is used by semiconductor companies around the world for microchips with wide ranging applications from laptops, smart phones and data processing systems to cars.
