Back in 2020, we led the team that created and helped run DARPA’s first-ever bug bounty program, known as FETT. Learn more about FETT and Galois's pioneering digital engineering research at Joe Kiniry's keynote for the First FireSim and Chipyard User Workshop on March 26.
The program for the First FireSim and Chipyard User/Developer Workshop (@ASPLOSConf 2023), is now available! We have an exciting lineup of 10 speakers, including a keynote from Joe Kiniry (@kiniry) from @galois on using FireSim in DARPA FETT! Full program: fires.im/workshop-2023/

New SonicBOOM features include auto-predication of short forward branches, a multi-load load/store unit, a TAGE-L (loop) predictor, RVC compressed support, RoCC co-processor support, and a FireSim/FPGA+Dromajo ISA model checker for verification (Fromajo 🧀)!

BOOM hits a new milestone! Read about the new v3, SonicBOOM! Slightly higher IPC in SPECint17 and Coremark relative to the A72s in AWS Gravitonv1! Appearing virtually at the next CARRV workshop, this Friday May 29th. (carrv.github.io/2020/papers/…). 💥
