Computer architecture research is conducted in the Advanced Computer Architecture Laboratory (ACAL). Established in 1985, ACAL serves as the
focal point for interdisciplinary research into the theory, design, programming, and applications of advanced computer systems. Over the past two decades, ACAL researchers have made pioneering contributions to
the design of high-performance computer architectures, spearheading technical advances in pipelining, branch prediction, and parallel processing. ACAL members and alumni have been and continue to be instrumental in the exploration and development of key technologies for
high-performance microprocessors, embedded processors, low-power architectures, and application-specific architectures. | |
