About Intel India Research Center
Intel India Research Center is focused on two broad areas: Silicon prototyping and Systems research. There are in fact, two labs in the Intel India Research Center.

Bangalore Design Labs (BDL) is a sister group to Circuit Research Labs, Oregon. We develop the prototype test chips as proof of concept for the next generation technology. Our group’s research and prototype implementation focuses on microprocessor-related products and technologies and our aim is to enable these for the future products. BDL focuses on the DSP technologies. In fact, BDL worked on Intel’s tera-scale research prototype silicon, “Polaris” the world’s first programmable TeraFLOP processor.

Systems Research Center (SRC) is a sister group to Systems Technology Lab, Oregon at Intel Corporation. SRC is conducting research and development in following focus areas:
  • Multi-Core Platforms Research
    Developing system technologies and architectures that will house multi-core silicon and deliver the promise of these exciting new technologies.

  • Platform Infrastructure Research
    Implementation of virtualization technologies, resource partitioning technologies, scalable execution environments, and extensions to firmware and hardware that increases platform reliability and corresponding system availability.

  • Thermo-mechanical Research
    Study of issues in packaging, outlining the thermal characteristic of a specific package, to identify mechanisms to improve thermal efficiency of a package, and come up with adequate cooling solutions. A specific focus of this lab would be on thermal characteristics 3-D die stack package.

  • Trust and Security Research
    Developing solutions that make Intel architecture the platform of choice by implementing the industry’s premier trust and manageability technologies. This research is aimed at enhancing the manageability and self-regulation of Intel platforms to reduce the overall cost of operations and create trusted technology solutions for businesses and consumers.

  • Multi-Function Platforms Research
    Developing new usage models for computing and converging them with existing device capabilities to create the next generation of multi-function computing devices. Applying many-core platform research and the technology developed as part of the platform infrastructure and trusted computing research activities to deliver exciting new next generation platforms enabling the converged digital lifestyle - in the home, in the office and on the road.

The Intel India Research Center works closely with the research community – to support quality research.

The programs that it supports are as follows:

Student Fellowships
We support fellowships for outstanding students in Masters or Ph.D. for the duration of their courses. Only students who have 9.8 and above in their GATE scores and who work in areas of our interest are eligible for this fellowship. A very select number of students are chosen each year. Faculty associated with the course also have to be active in their research work to be able to recommend their students to us.

Research Grant
Each year, we select and shepherd a small number of proposals to our internal research council. There the proposals go through a process of selection that takes into account various parameters that include novelty of the problem chosen, innovative approach, why does solving the problem matters, style of presentation, literature survey, the background of the researchers’ and their publication record.

With each research grant is associated with an Intel sponsor who is available for continuous technical interaction.

Curriculum Support
We offer curriculum guidance on domain areas such as wireless, multi-core architecture, VLSI Design. Check out this link for more information www.intel.com/education/highered/modelcurriculum.htm. Please read and use the curriculum as per the legal guidelines associated with its usage.

Faculty Sabbatical
Faculties working in the area of systems design are encouraged to contact us. Select faculties are invited to spend a period of time with us, working on problems of mutual interest.

Travel Grant
Intel supports travel grant for faculty and research scholars at an academic institution to international conferences, for those who have accepted papers at these conferences.
