Research

 To create advanced information communication systems, design technologies, CAD (Computer-Aided Design) algorithms, and analysis algorithms for human genetics have been studied. In the field of SoC (System on a Chip) design, image processors such as H.264, network processors, FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Arrays), etc. are designed. In the field of CAD, hardware/software codesign algorithms, interface synthesis algorithms, high-level synthesis algorithms are developed. Sensor network systems and whale classification systems are developed. Statistical genetic algorithms are developed and accelerated on PC clusters.
