The Libre-SOC Project aims to create an entirely Libre-Licensed, transparently-developed fully auditable Hybrid 3D CPU-GPU-VPU, using the Supercomputer-class OpenPOWER ISA as the foundation.
Our first test ASIC is a 180nm "Fixed-Point" Power ISA v3.0B processor, 5.1mm x 5.9mm, as a proof-of-concept for the team, whose primary expertise is in Software Engineering. Software Engineering training brings a radically different approach to Hardware development: extensive unit tests, source code revision control, automated development tools are normal. Libre Project Management brings even more: bug trackers, mailing lists, auditable IRC logs and a wiki are standard fare for Libre Projects that are simply not normal Industry-Standard practice.
This talk therefore goes through the workflow, from the original HDL through to the GDS-II layout, showing how we were able to keep track of the development that led to the IMEC 180nm tape-out in July 2021. In particular, by following a parallel development process involving "Real" and "Symbolic" Cell Libraries, developed by Chips4Makers, will be shown how our developers did not need to sign a Foundry NDA, but were still able to work side-by-side with a University that did. With this parallel development process, the University upheld their NDA obligations, and Libre-SOC were simultaneously able to honour its Transparency Objectives.

The IBM POWER10 processor represents the 10th generation of the POWER family of enterprise computing engines. Its performance is a result of both powerful processing cores and high-bandwidth intra- and inter-chip interconnect. POWER10 systems can be configured with up to 16 processor chips and 1920 simultaneous threads of execution. Cross-system memory sharing, through the new Memory Inception technology, and 2 Petabytes of addressing space support an expansive memory system. The POWER10 processing core has been significantly enhanced over its POWER9 predecessor, including a doubling of vector units and the addition of an all-new matrix math engine. Throughput gains from POWER9 to POWER10 average 30% at the core level and three-fold at the socket level. Those gains can reach ten- or twenty-fold at the socket level for matrix-intensive computations.
Everything is changing from Health Care to the Automotive markets without forgetting Financial markets or any type of engineering everything has stopped being created as an individual or best-case scenario a team effort to something that is being developed and perfectioned by using AI and hundreds of computers.

Past years I have been enabling and engaging worldwide researchers , partners
and developers into our Disruptive Technologies and Open Technologies . What
excites me is receiving back insights on assignments/activities . According to me ,
One should never stop learning in life. The imagination of connected partners ,
researchers and students as they contemplate the applications and fusion of
emerging technologies in society and security is an inspiration.
