[H2] Physical AI is Built on MIPS

Sense

Think

Act

Communicate

[H3] The next wave of edge AI devices will move AI into the real world. Mission critical systems will be optimized for power and efficiency, and built using open technology defined in virtual platforms.

The implementation of the “Sense, Think, Act, Communicate” signal chain — a closed loop workload to provide real-time autonomy — is a defining characteristic of Physical AI platforms.MIPS and GlobalFoundries uniquely offer the capability to define and manufacture custom edge silicon at scale, anywhere in the world.MIPS open, modular technologies enable AI for mission critical real-time platforms, building on decades of experience and generations of secure, safe computing.Start with MIPS Atlas Explorer to begin evaluating and optimizing IP, subsystems, and even full SoCs, in virtual platforms — ahead of silicon, FPGA, or even RTL.

[H5] Auto Re-vectorization Whitepaper

The methodology was designed to systematically transform other vector/SIMD ISA (x86 AVX, ARM SVE/Neon, etc) intrinsic code into RISC-V Vector assembly and analyze its performance metrics. The procedure consists of first converting the input intrinsic code (other vector ISA) to LLVM Vector IR, then modifying the input ISA attributes to RISC-V Vector attributes, applying LLVM vector optimization passes (for a specific RISC-V Vector Processor) and finally lowering the optimized LLVM Vector IR to the target RISC-V Vector CPU assembly code.
