PULP FACTS
Hi! I’m Bianca, international bear of mystery, and I’m here to take you on a tour of the PULP platform. Ready?
PULP stands for Parallel Ultra Low Power. The PULP platform started as a collaboration between the Integrated Systems Laboratory at ETH Zürich and the Energy-Efficient Embedded Systems group at the University of Bologna.
Since 2013, PULP has implemented over 50 chips. Check out our first RISC-V core, Imperio, from 2015.
(Back then, my predecessor, Alex, was in charge. Alex went missing back in 2019. We don’t talk about Alex)
Some of our chips have won accolades, like Fulmine, winner of an IEEE Circuits and Systems best paper award.
Some provide extra computational muscle, like Arnold, which was produced in record time thanks to industry collaboration with QuickLogic.
