The research activity of the Architecture and Technology of Computing Systems (ArTeCS) group at the Complutense University of Madrid spans a broad range of topics in computer architecture, high-performance computing (HPC), and embedded systems, with a strong focus on energy efficiency, scalability, and performance portability.
Our mission is to influence how computing systems are designed, programmed, and used by contributing across the entire system stack—from hardware-level mechanisms to applications—to support the development of next-generation computing systems, with a particular emphasis on open-source hardware (within the RISC-V ecosystem) and software.
Current research areas include:
- Agentic AI in HPC
- AI-driven data and signal processing in clinical medicine
- Chiplet-based hardware architectures and system integration
- Design, tuning and automatic generation of HPC libraries
- Next generation arithmetic
- Novel memory organizations for emerging technologies
- Performance portability on heterogeneous platforms
- Post-quantum cryptography
- Quantum computing based on different technologies
- System-level modeling and performance analysis
- System software and runtime environments for resource management
- Techniques and tools for coupled HW/SW elasticity/malleability
The ArTeCS group has been recognized as one of the “Excellent” research groups at UCM, according to an evaluation commissioned by the AEI.
