The RISC-V ISA has spawned a worldwide revolution in the semiconductor industry.
SiFive, the company founded by the inventors of the RISC-V architecture, and Syntacore, a founding member of the RISC-V Foundation and leader in RISC-V processor IP cores, are jointly hosting a RISC-V technical symposium in Moscow on Monday, May 20, 2019 at the Moscow Holiday Inn Lesnaya.
SiFive is fueling the global RISC-V momentum with myriad hardware and software solutions that are democratizing access to custom silicon featuring robust design platforms and custom accelerators. As a result, we are witnessing new and innovative RISC-V based solutions for IoT, AI, networking and storage applications.
Syntacore, a leading provider of RISC-V compatible CPU IP, with a design center in Saint-Petersburg, is instrumental in fostering RISC-V based advancements in technology with one of the widest offerings of customizable cores and tools.
This event will feature presentations by industry veterans, ecosystem partners and researchers from academia. Attendees will learn about custom cores and design platforms, and the SaaS-based approach that is enabling fast and easy access to them. We will also showcase currently-available RISC-V core development boards, high bandwidth memory IP subsystem validation boards and customizable RISC-V SoC platforms, all of which reduce risk, development time and cost while enabling differentiation within silicon.
This symposium is intended for engineers and electronics professionals, electronics-focused academicians, and electronics and electrical associations. Attendance is free for qualified attendees (preliminary registration required).

About UltraSoC
UltraSoC has semiconductor IP for debug (run control, trace, etc) for complex SoCs: making it easy to develop, optimize, fix bugs, reduce power consumption and reduce cost. This can be used pre‐silicon, to accelerate emulation and prototyping, or post‐silicon to support bring up, HW/SW integration or even in‐field/in‐use. UltraSoC has full support for RISC‐V (and other CPUs e.g. heterogeneous multi‐core), but debug addresses not just the CPU but across whole SoC.
