SRC Overview • Semiconductor Research Corporation • Outgrowth of MCC (Austin) • Member companies include IBM, Intel, AMD, Cadence, • Synopsys pulled out; Sun never there • Have periodic calls for whitepapers • Keep submitting whitepapers addressing point-of-view of champions of those WPs • When asked to submit a proposal, do so again knowing what they are looking for • Finally get a 3-year ride for 80K / each year
SRC Overview • Once funded, one gets to submit deliverables reports • Deck of cards shuffled every 3-years (e.g. Berkeley dropped once) • Many tracks – each track has a different style • Annual reviews for renewal each year • Excellent opportunity to meet the key players in VLSI and embedded • Emphasis moving towards embedded software, low-level issues in VLSI, low-power, … • Best would be to try and aim for GSRC • Must collaborate with ECE faculty also
SRC Overview • Recent Nano emphasis -- SRC / NSF collab (unfortunately filtered out at U level) • Excellent opportunity to work with industrial folks • Do an industrial sabbatical to further these connections… • Most likely they know abt you before you know abt them !! • www.src.org • Faculty funded at Utah: Myers, and now me/slind • Many SRC grad fellowships • New fellowships targeting Ugs and under-rep groups • Generally need to be associated with SRC-funded fac member
