Prof. Jayadeva Receives Google Cloud Faculty Research Grant 2026 September 30,2026
The Yardi School of Artificial Intelligence (ScAI), IIT Delhi, congratulates Prof. Jayadeva, Associate Faculty member at Yardi School of Artificial Intelligence, on being selected for the Google Cloud Faculty Research Grant 2026.
Prof. Jayadeva has received the grant for his research proposal titled “Hardware–Software Co-Design of a Low-Power RISC-V–GPU System for Programmable Graphics and Edge Computing.”
The proposed research focuses on developing a hardware–software co-designed computing platform comprising a custom SIMD micro-GPU architecture integrated with an open-source RISC-V host processor, along with a custom compiler and OpenGL driver stack.
The work aims to enable programmable and energy-efficient acceleration for graphics and edge-computing workloads. It addresses research areas including custom silicon, systems for AI, and localized edge computing, with potential relevance to secure and resource-constrained computing environments.
The grant recognizes the technical novelty and broader potential of the proposed research.
ScAI congratulates Prof. Jayadeva on this achievement and wishes him continued success in his research.
