Research profile
Kanishkan Vadivel is Researcher in the Electronic Systems group of the Department of Electrical Engineering at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e). His early research interest includes developing hardware architecture for energy efficient and high-performance computing, and compiler based code-generation techniques.
Kanishkan's current research includes optimal code-generation for explicit datapath architecture(CGRA) and part of MNEMOSENE project aimed to demonstrate a new computation-in-memory architecture based on resistive devices.
