Applying Evolutionary Models to DRAM Design (1st Offering)
School of Computer Science - JLR Challenge #2 Technical Workshop
Applying Evolutionary Models to DRAM Design (1st Offering)
Presenter: Steven Rice
Date: Wednesday, October 22, 2025
Time: 9:00 AM
Location: Workshop Space, 4th Floor - 300 Ouellette Ave., School of Computer Science Advanced Computing Hub
Abstract:
This workshop will explore applying evolutionary models towards DRAM design using DRAMSys. An overview of common evolutionary methods will be given, followed by proposing a few areas where they could be applied alongside DRAMSys. Lastly, a sample implementation will be explored, giving you a strong starting point to further develop your own ideas for dynamically determining the best DRAM designs.
Workshop Outline:
1. Overview of common evolutionary methods.
2. Discussion of potential applications for evolutionary models towards DRAM design.
3. Exploration of a sample evolutionary model implementation for DRAMSys.
Prerequisites:
Familiarity with DRAMSys, such as previously having attended the “Introduction to DRAMSys” workshop.
Biography:
My career has focused on applying technologies from the world of game development to solve complex industrial challenges. I have led the development of industrial robotics and vision simulation platforms, creating digital twins to validate manufacturing concepts and accelerate client development cycles. My current research builds on this foundation, exploring the next generation of these systems by applying agentic AI to digital twins and robotic systems. I believe the intersection of AI and real-time simulation holds the key to the future of smart mobility, and I'm excited to help build that future with you.
