Davide Conficconi

I am an Assistant Professor at Dipartimento Elettronica, Informazione e Bioingegneria of Politecnico di Milano (Italy) and an incoming visiting scholar at the University of Edinburgh.

My research interests fall in the broad spectrum of the digital computer system architecture field where achieving high-performance and energy-efficiency is paramount. Specifically major topics are: (co-)design of domain-specific architectures and systems, architectures or frameworks that span the system stack (from the HDL design to the design automation, from the abstraction layer the compilation framework), reconfigurable architectures, especially FPGAs, heterogeneous systems. I am also started investigating neuromorphic systems and aerospace systems where specilization and efficiency are mandatory. Together with other investigators from Polimi, TUM, and Imperial, we are looking at opportunities in Whisky aging acceleration.

An experiment to better visualize my research can be found here (WIP). Further details of my publications can be found in Google Scholar profile, my publications page, or this self-made pdf list (possibly outdated), or other research profiles in this page.

If you are a motivated student, and curious or already share some of my research interests, feel free to reach out.
