Here, I provide an overview showing the work our team (and I, making minor contributions) performed on training Zaya-1 purely on AMD software and hardware. We outline challenges, as well as demonstrate that AMD itself is a mature platform for high performance training.

SLICE Retreat - Introduction to Memorysim

May 21, 2025

Talk, Oceano Hotel, Half Moon Bay, CA, USA

Here, I provided an introduction to MemorySim, a high fidelity RTL model to simulate HBM 2. The model can be used in RTL-level synthesis via Chipyard to obtain low-level address traces on RISCV binary workloads generated from C programs, as well the FPGA emulation toolchain surrounding FireSim.
