Research

I am currently designing a tool (Galsa) for the design of asynchronous circuits base upon Balsa.

My research led to:
  • A visualisation/debugging system for Balsa, intended to:
    • render the handshake circuit graph and provide a navigation interface,
    • map multiple sources onto each other, for navigating between different formats easily (e.g. jumping through: Balsa statement -> generated Breeze handshake component -> synthesised Verilog element -> vcd trace events),
    • animate simulation events on top of the handshake graph,
    • provide debugging functionalities specific to asynchronous problems such as deadlocks and meta-stability.
  • GALSA/Balsamics - Balsa Modules InterConnect System : a system-level design tool for describing GALS (Globally Asynchronous, Locally Synchronous) systems.
  • This is my current research topic.
