| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, this researcher aimed to realize high-level processing in an extremely compact system configuration by implementing flexible and complex processing based on the principles of learning and memory, massively parallel, and autonomous distribution in the information processing process of the brain as hardware algorithms. Inspired by the brain's plasticity (environmental adaptability), the resercher promoted the realization of a new concept of intelligent environment-adaptive LSI platform technology that is not an extension of conventional ones. The effectiveness of the proposed technology was demonstrated through the design and evaluation of various circuits for IoT applications.
