Future FPGA architectures considering Machine learning algorithm requirements
The focus of this project is rethinking FPGA architectures by considering the well-known shift in the hardware implementation demand as the result of the unprecedented growth of machine learning applications and their deployments. This is crucial, especially for embedded system applications where reconfigurable architectures such as FPGAs offers both flexibility and performance.

A brief summary of my journey
I was the Head Robotics Engineer of Iran Telecom fair 2017 demo on behalf of Mobile Telecommunication Company of Iran (MCI) for a joint research project between MCI and Sharif University of Technology. This project was a proof of concept regarding future opportunities of 5G in smart cities, also known as “Smart Cars”.
