Embedded Computing Laboratory

Mission

ECL’s mission is to address computing artifacts (digital circuits, architectures, computing models, algorithms, and software) from the perspective of the requirements and constraints of embedded systems  (energy efficiency, security, real-time, etc.), and to propose novel techniques for modeling, optimizing and verifying current and future embedded computing systems.
