AI Computing Systems

Introduction

This repository is the experimental environment for the cource AI Computing Systems of ShanghaiTech University.

This experimental environment is developed based on the project oscpu-framework of OSCPU.

Get started

First, prepare the softwares following the instruction.

Preparation for softwares

Second, config the experimental environment and learn the basic usage.

Instructions for usage

If you want to learn about the compiling script, you can read the introduction.

Introduction of the Compiling Script

Lab Assignment

Note!!!

This repository in the docker image is the initial version. Experimental content of the labs will be released successively in this repository. So you need to use the following git command to update your local repository once new lab is released.

git pull

If you have trouble in executing git pull like this situation, you can try the command below before executing git pull.

git branch --set-upstream-to=origin/master master

1. README.md is the project's description document.
2. The build.sh is a verilator compilation script that greatly simplifies the compilation of vialtor. At the same time, this script can record the user's compilation history to avoid faking. Note: Modification of this script is forbidden!!!
3. The myinfo.txt records the user's personal information, which should be updated in this file first after entering the environment for the first time. The compile script records this information when it records the user's compile history. If personal information is written, the compile script will not work.
4. The directory bin, holds some machine code that will be used in the cpu emulation.
5. The directory doc, holds the relevant documentation and some manuals about RISC-V.
6. The directory libraries, holds the necessary library files that will be used in the cpu emulation.
7. The directory projects, holds the user's custom project code.
8. The directory tools, holds some useful scripts or tools.
