\section{Research}\label{sec:Research}
\subsection{Village Project}, \Location{\NU{}, Evanston, IL} \hfill \DatetoPresent{2022}{06}{01}\\
\Advisor{\href{https://www.mccormick.northwestern.edu/research-faculty/directory/profiles/dinda-peter.html}{Dr.\ Peter Dinda}}\\
\emph{Student Researcher --- \href{http://presciencelab.org/}{Prescience Lab}} \hfill {~}
\begin{notopsepitemize}
\item Helped implement back-end \href{https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.5555/865063}{VCODE} code generation for an LLVM-based compiler
\item Identified \href{https://riscv.org}{RISC-V} \href{https://github.com/riscv/riscv-v-spec/releases/tag/v1.0}{V-extension} as good candidate for VCODE acceleration
\item Designed VCODE accelerator as RoCC coprocessor in \href{https://chisel-lang.org}{Chisel} and integrated with \href{https://chipyard.readthedocs.io/en/stable}{Chipyard}
\item Implemented both unit tests and baremetal full-program tests for coprocessor
\item Debugged design using Verilator, a cycle-accurate behavioral simulator and GTKWave, a waveform viewer
\end{notopsepitemize}
\subsection{Virtine Accelerator}, \Location{\IIT{}, Chicago, IL} \hfill \Daterange{2021}{06}{01}{2021}{08}{31}\\
\Advisor{\href{https://www.iit.edu/directory/people/kyle-hale}{Dr.\ Kyle Hale}}\\
\emph{\href{http://datasys.cs.iit.edu/grants/BigDataX/2021/index.html}{Student Researcher} --- \href{http://mystic.cs.iit.edu/}{Mystic}} \hfill {~}
\begin{notopsepitemize}
\item Created FPGA design to accelerate virtual machine clean-up, branching off of work another Ph.~D student completed
\item Developed \textsc{Linux} PCIe kernel module to initialize and communicate with flashed hardware design
\item Exposed FPGA capabilities as character device for programmer interaction
\item Wrote \href{https://www.qemu.org/}{QEMU} device to emulate physical device's behavior and validate kernel module functionality
\end{notopsepitemize}
