About CVEST
The International Institute of Information Technology was founded in 1998 and Centre for VLSI Design and Embedded Systems (CVEST) was established in 2002 with an aim to build Low Cost Indigenous Technologies through Research and Development, in the areas of VLSI design and Embedded Systems. Since its inception, CVEST has spread its research activities to other related areas like Computer Architecture, Compilers, Parallel/Concurrent Programming. Following are some of the specific research topics we are looking at.
Along with research, we hope to nurture young engineers with all the skills necessary for various aspects of Computer Systems Development through strong course work and research oriented projects. Eventually, the lab aims to be a breeding ground for tomorrow's entrepreneurial leadership. The Centre works closely with various companies like Intel, Microsoft, Xilinx, Cadence and Portal Player (Currently owned by NVIDIA).
Programs offered by the Lab
The Centre offers Ph.D, Masters by Research (M.S. by Research), Masters by course work (M.Tech), and B.Tech(Honors) programs. The Centre, at present, has 4 students pursuing PhD, 15 M.S. (by Research) students, 43 M.Tech students and 30 students enrolled in B.Tech (Hons).
