Yesterday I gave an invited talk at @uwaterloo.ca (at the invitation of Nachiket Kapre) on digit slicing, exploring the fundamental question of which operand digits we need to know to compute a digit of a result. Picture is me and Milos Ercegovac, father of online arithmetic.

✨#Philosophy really can change minds. ✨To mark #WorldPhilosophyDay, here's a reminder of what a difference it can make. As our Chair, @lucyobrien.bsky.social, puts it: “Philosophy teaches skills integral to cultivating social values and conduct. It changes people's minds.”

Yesterday we had a lovely lunch to celebrate the completion of Martin Langhammer's PhD. With John Wickerson, Christos Savvas Bouganis, Wayne Luk, Peter Cheung and of course the star of the show, Martin Langhammer.

Enjoyed this Google Deepmind podcast on @waymo.bsky.social podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/g...

Current and former @imperialeee.bsky.social students are gathering at EMNLP in China. This photo features two of my former PhD students Gao and Liu, one of my current PhD students @martaandronic.bsky.social, and two of my former UGs @martaandronic.bsky.social again and Zhao, latter now my colleague!

Assistant professorships at Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Imperial College London! *TWO* assistant professorships are available: One in Digital Electronics and one in Biomedical Electronics. Please spread the word. www.imperial.ac.uk/jobs/search-...

Was delighted to have welcomed alumnus Theo Drane back to @imperialeee.bsky.social for a flying visit today. Always productive meetings with Theo, no matter how long or short!

I recognise these archetypes! Interesting blog from Inger Mewburn. Thanks to Magdalena Jara for pointing it out! thesiswhisperer.com/2025/05/01/n...

This workshop aims to establish a cross-disciplinary dialogue between experts in several disciplines to address the urgent challenge of reducing the energy footprint of computational science. bit.ly/4nuk77l @riakymch.bsky.social @malyzajko.bsky.social @gconstantinides.bsky.social

Some (optional) reading I gave to my students today. A paper from 1726. (First brought to my attention by Milos Ercegovac)

Pioneer Leon Chua from @ucberkeleyofficial.bsky.social is giving us a talk today at @imperialeee.bsky.social. Thanks to Giordano Scarciotti for organising!

Looking forward to giving my first (double) lecture of the term to first year undergrads today on digital electronics. A week later than hoped for as I got caught up in the freshers' flu epidemic last week. But hoping I can make up for it today!

Nice article below. It was similar thinking that motivated us to develop networks around Boolean LUT rather than matmul in 2019. The latest incarnation, NeuraLUT-Assemble by @martaandronic.bsky.social, is here github.com/MartaAndroni... www.sigarch.org/dont-put-all...

Congrats to Martin Langhammer, has passed his PhD viva. A great pleasure working with Martin, who I have known for decades! An impressive body of work on high performance and compact soft SIMT processors for FPGAs. Thanks also to Vaughn Betz and Christos Bouganis for examining.

I am supporting #WorldMentalHealthDay

New blog from Stephen Webster citing our lift (US: elevator) conversation on Aristotle 😁 blogs.imperial.ac.uk/the-good-sci...

Today I met up with two of my former PhD students (one of whom brought his own PhD students, my grand-students!) at a workshop run by my former undergraduate project student. Enjoying my "old man" status.

Back from NeuMat kickoff: network in neuromorphic materials and devices for future AI hardware at stunning Trinity. As someone bridging software and digital accelerator design for ML, interesting to hear from materials and devices people. There is a lot we can do together!

It was great to see all the staff of @imperialeee.bsky.social so engaged with common purpose. And my father-in-law will be extremely jealous when I show him photos from the venue!

Happy PAW! Lots going on this week, at university and department level. Tomorrow, I will be participating in a "Fireside Chat" on "Your Postdoc Journey at @imperialcollegeldn.bsky.social", together with Walmsley, Elvidge and Stallwood, as well as the @imperialecri.bsky.social awards and celebration!

A long-form interview about a whole host of things, from Imperial College, scientific research, AI and its safety, doing a PhD, evaluation of researchers, being a PhD supervisor, @imperialecri.bsky.social, my mentors, semiconductor design, ... www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppI2...

Looking forward to attending an EPSRC Doctoral Education Review roundtable this afternoon to help develop EPSRC's priorities for doctoral activities and investment over the next 3-5 years.

Super-impressed by the registered turnout of 110 PhD advisors from all seven Estonian universities, signed up to hear me speak on "Neuroinclusive Doctoral Supervision" next week on behalf of @imperialecri.bsky.social. Thank you to Monika Tasa and Jekaterina Bossenko for the invitation.

Read this new book by @historyned.bsky.social while on holiday. Fascinating. As a non-historian, Katja Hoyer hooked me on DDR history and Ned Richardson-Little has just helped feed my interest. Great set of references for further reading at the back too!

A wealth of data in the full important study from @gavrobstew.bsky.social and @proffrancescahappe.bsky.social at King's College London, shining a much-needed light on experiences of later-life autistic people.

Want to see NeuraLUT-Assemble working and learn all about the latest in LUT-based neural networks and how to classify in nanoseconds? On Monday 1st @martaandronic.bsky.social and Olly Cassidy from @imperialeee.bsky.social will be delivering a tutorial at @ethz.ch ! indico.cern.ch/event/149667...

NeuraLUT-Assemble open-sourced! My PhD @martaandronic.bsky.social has been working hard to open-source our SOTA NeuraLUT-Assemble work presented this year at FCCM2025. Extreme low latency inference for FPGA-based machine learning. Try: github.com/MartaAndroni... Read: arxiv.org/abs/2504.00592

Congratulations to Tony Liu (jointly supervised by Deniz Gunduz and @martaandronic.bsky.social, whose AMD-funded work “Training with Fewer Bits: Unlocking Edge LLMs Training with Stochastic Rounding” has been accepted as an EMNLP 2025 Findings paper. Preprint to follow!

Ahead of welcoming international PhD students next week, I counted the number of nationalities of PhD students I've graduated: UK, Iranian, Chinese, US, Malaysian, Russian, Italian, German, Pakistani, Spanish, Tunisian, Thai, Portuguese, Singaporean, Irish. A privilege to have learnt from them all!

In an otherwise interesting episode of @wsj.com tech news briefing yesterday, there was statement that open weights for LLMs implies absence of bias in LLM responses. This is conflating two very different things. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/w...
