Computer Engineering
This project is a debugger and programmer for the OTTER CPU, the implementation of the RISC-V ISA used by Cal Poly to teach computer architecture and assembly language in CPE 233/333 and usually implemented on the Basys3 FPGA development board. With this tool, students can quickly program their OTTER with a new/revised RISC-V program binary without resynthesizing the entire FPGA design. They can then use the debugger from a PC to pause/continue/single-step execution and set breakpoints, while inspecting and modifying register and memory contents. This enables real-time debugging of OTTER projects involving custom hardware such as a keyboard and VGA …

Presently, there is an insufficient availability of human experts to assist students in reading competency and comprehension. Our team’s goal was to create an improved socially assistive robot for use by therapists, teachers, and parents to help children and adults develop reading skills while they do not have access to specialists. HAPI is a socially assistive robot that we created with the goal of helping students practice their reading comprehension skills. HAPI enables a student to improve their reading skills without an educator present, while enabling educators to review the student's performance remotely. Design constraints included: physical size, weight, duration …

Node similarity search on graphs has wide applications in recommendation, link prediction, to name just a few. However, existing studies are insufficient due to two reasons: (i) the scale of the real-world graph is growing rapidly, and (ii) vertices are always associated with complex attributes. In this paper, we propose an efficiently distributed framework to support node similarity search on massive graphs, which considers both graph structure correlation and node attribute similarity in metric spaces. The framework consists of preprocessing stage and query stage. In the preprocessing stage, a parallel KD-tree construction (KDC) algorithm is developed to form a newly …
