EMBEDDED & RE-CONFIGURABLE SYSTEMS LABORATORY (ERSL)

ERSL was established by Dr. Lev Kirischian in May 1999 and equipped with support of the :
i) Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering
ii) NSERC (2 grants) [1999-2001] and [2001-2005]
iii) MMO: Materials & Manufacturing of Ontario (4 grants) [2001-2002] and [2005-2006]
iv) CITO: Communication and Information Technology Ontario [2006-2008]
v) Dean's grants (2 grants) [1998-2003]

Recently there are two research groups working at ERSL:

1. Embedded & Reconfigurable Platforms research group

This research group directed by Dr. Lev Kirischian is focused on R&D in the area of adaptive reconfigurable computing platforms mostly ultra-high-performance (Giga OPS) data-stream processors.

Currently group consists of:

Dr. Lev Kirischian, P.Eng. (Principal Investigator)
Mr. Pil Woo (Peter) Chun (Ph.D-student),
Mr. Fayez Chayab (Ph.D. student),
Mr. Sergey Zhelnakov (M.A.Sc. student),
Ms. Dina Goldenberg (M.Eng. student),
Mr. Oleg Samarin (M.Eng. student),

2. Diagnostic and Recovery for Reconfigurable Computing Platforms research group

This research group directed by Dr. Vadim Geurkov is oriented for R&D in the area of Built-In-Self-Test (BIST) and self-restoration of reconfigurable (FPGA-based) computing systems. There are two students in this research group:

Currently group consists of:

Dr. Vadim Geurkov (Principal Investigator)
Mr. Valeri Kirischian (PhD. student)

 

MAIN RESEARCH ACTIVITY

  Specialization of the research groups working at ERSL is R&D in the following areas:

  1. High-performance data-flow and data-stream re-configurable processing systems;
  2. Automated high-level architectural synthesis of stream-processors;
  3. Diagnostic and troubleshooting of FPGA-based embedded systems;
  4. Fault-tolerant, self-restorable re-configurable embedded systems;
  5. High-performance network processors with protocol adaptation.
