RAMP Winter 2009 Retreat [1-20-2009]
With the RAMP Winter 2009 retreat all wrapped up, we have now posted the slides from the various presentations to the Publications Page.

ParLab Opening [12-1-2008]
On December 1st 2008 the U.C. Berkeley ParLab was opened with generous sponsorship from Microsoft and Intel, and there is an EETimes article about the opening. Many of the U.C. Berkeley RAMP people work in the ParLab, and the RAMP Gold simulator is designed to support the architecture and operating system research group.

RAMP Summer Retreat 2008 [8-20-2008]
The RAMP Summer retreat has now come and gone. Aside from pictures of all the smiling attendees, all of the talks, and a few of the posters can be found on the publications page.

Introducing RAMP Gold [5-12-2008]
The RAMP Gold project is a new effort to produce fully parameterized manycore emulations using FPGAs to help accelerate hardware and software research within the recently announced ParLab. In particular we hope to release emulators ported to both the BEE3 and the Xilinx ML505 FPGA boards, along with tutorials and documentation to help external researchers use our systems. We also plan to enable remote access to Berkeley-based BEE3 systems to allow academic researchers to share our FPGA infrastructure. A fresh crop of eager new U.C. Berkeley students has started work to sketch out the architecture of the RAMP Gold emulator and the ParLab target system.

Anyone interested in getting involved with RAMP Gold should take a quick look at our Getting Started page. We'll post more information here over time.
