The Center for Silicon System Implementation (CSSI) is focused on all aspects
of integrated system design and manufacturing that spans from network-on-achip
architectures to self-adaptable analog and digital circuits, to ultra
low-power nano devices, bio chips, and the CAD methodologies that enable
them. Our 18
faculty researchers span several Carnegie Mellon departments that include
Electrical & Computer Engineering, Computer Science and Mechanical Engineering.
Currently,
the center has over 80 graduate students working in or across various
areas that include manufacturing, circuits, systems and other
emerging technologies.
Founded in 2000, CSSI builds on over 25 years of experience in the electronic
design automation industry that began with a sustaining grant from the
Semiconductor Research Corporation. Today our research is supported by the
U.S. government, various consortiums and industry.
