Second Ph.D. Paper Published by ACM TACO

Dr. David Gregg and I have had my second Ph.D. paper published. Entitled “Low Complexity Multiply-Accumulate Units for Convolutional Neural Networks with Weight-Sharing”, the ACM Transactions on Architecture and Code Optimization published it in their August 2018 Journal. The ACM also published it on their online server, which can be viewed for free! It can also be found on the arXiv.org pre-print server.

Passed My PhD Confirmation Viva

I undertook my Ph.D. Confirmation viva voce today (6th Feb 2018). This entailed a presentation and a report to two professors, Dr. Jonathan Dukes (presentation chair) and Dr. Michael Manzke (domain expert) of Trinity College Dublin who questioned me during and after the presentation. After a short discussion with my supervisor Dr. David Gregg, they confirmed me to the Ph.D. register and therefore become a Ph.D. candidate.
