Qiming Chu

Engineer

• Open-source EDA maintenance (iEDA): Added some tcl commands for metrics evaluation. Focused on build system fixes and infrastructure maintenance to keep tools usable
• Backend flow enablement (RTL2GDS): Adapted the icsprout55 process and integrated EDA Tools, enabling a full backend flow on the platform
• EDA datasets: Curated multi-process design cases, producing baseline test data
• SoC integration (ysyxSoC): Integrated tapeout-ready peripheral IPs, validated bus-bridge functionality

Intern

• One Student One Chip Training: Developed a RISC-V processor using Chisel, supporting RV32I instruction set and partial interrupt exceptions. Implemented peripheral access through AXI-Lite bus including UART and RTC clock. Successfully ran Coremark, Microbench test programs and Mario game. Implemented context switching on abstract-machine layer and enabled RT-Thread startup

Teaching Assistant

• Teaching Assistant Duties:Responsible for online Q&A, interviews, and student progress tracking
• D1S Board Porting: Led the RISC-V software porting to custom D1S board. Ported OpenWRT-based Linux and abstract-machine from NJU-ProjectN. Added drivers for UART, SPI, GPIO, etc. Adapted abstract-machine compatibility layer for the board. Successfully ran test programs from am-kernels and fceux-am emulator, enabling NES games like Mario Kart on the board
