The OpenPOWER ISA has a strong multi-decades pedigree in Supercomputing:
Matrix Multiply, 128-bit SIMD, BCD, Decimal Floating-point have been part
benefit Supercomputing performance and decrease power consumption,
by reducing I-Cache usage.

The Libre-SOC Project is developed by Software Engineers with a Hardware
background: in particular, Software Engineers with decades of experience
has been possible to run the exact same JTAG Boundary Scan and basic

+Jean-Paul Chaput holds a Master Degree in MicroElectronics and Software
+Engineering. He joined the LIP6 laboratory within Sorbonne Université or SU
+(formerly UPMC) in 2000. Currently he is a Research Engineer in the Analog and
+Mixed Signal Team at LIP6. His main focus is on physical level design
+software. He is a key contributor in developing and maintaining the
+Alliance/Coriolis VLSI CAD projects for CMOS technologies. In particular he
+contributed in developing the routers of both Alliance/Coriolis and the whole
+Coriolis toolchain infrastructure. He his now a key contributor in extending
+Alliance/Coriolis to the Analog Mixed-Signal integration for nanometric CMOS
+technologies.

+## ICS 2021 Abstract
+
+Starting in 1990, Sorbonne Université-CNRS/LIP6 developed Alliance, a complete
+VLSI CAD toolchain released under GPL. In this spirit, we are assembling an
+upgraded design flow for ASICs based on FOSS tools like GHDL & Yosys for
+logical synthesis and Coriolis2 for physical design. We will present the flow
+with a focus on the Coriolis2 part and the LibreSOC first prototype. This
+should be an important milestone toward the creation of an open hardware
+community.
