Stanford researchers have developed an efficient and low-cost device which increases the energy harvest of a system by recovering these losses through module-level maximum power point tracking (MPPT).
Researchers in Prof. William Dally's laboratory have designed a dragonfly topology that reduces the cost of high-radix networks by reducing the number of long, global cables.
The performance of most digital systems today is limited more by their communication or interconnection rather than their logic or memory. To increase the entire system's efficacy, the focus is on improving the system's interconnection network.
