Summer Bootcamp - RISC-V Instruction Set Manual improvements

Job Description and Requirements

At Synopsys, we’re at the heart of the innovations that change the way we work and play. Self-driving cars. Artificial Intelligence. The cloud. 5G. The Internet of Things. These breakthroughs are ushering in the Era of Smart Everything. And we’re powering it all with the world’s most advanced technologies for chip design and software security. If you share our passion for innovation, we want to meet you.

Join Synopsys ARC-V Processor team this summer to contribute to the open standard RISC-V instruction set architecture (ISA) documentation.

Synopsys ARC-V Processor IP™ is based on the open standard RISC-V instruction set architecture (ISA), extending the current ARC portfolio and giving customers access to the growing RISC-V ecosystem. As active members of the community, we aim to enhance the RISC-V ecosystem by sharing our extensive experience in processor IP and tools development. We are launching a project to improve the documentation for developers working with low-level software on RISC-V based processors.

Goals
The primary goal of this internship is to elevate the RISC-V Instruction Set Manual to industry standards, comparable to renowned manuals like the Programmer’s Reference Manual for ARC Processors and the Programmers Guide for ARM processors.

Project Tasks

• Assess the current state of publicly available programmers manuals for various processor families and architectures.
• Propose improvements for the RISC-V Instruction Set Manual.
• Implement the proposed improvements and contribute them to the community project on GitHub.

Target
We are seeking computer science students who are eager to learn and contribute to the open-source community.

Qualifications

• Enrolled in a computer science or related degree program.
• Familiarity processor architectures and low-level programming.
• Excellent research and analytical skills.
• Experience with GitHub and collaborative projects.
• Passion for open-source development and documentation.

Benefits

• Gain hands-on experience with RISC-V, an emerging and rapidly growing technology.
• Contribute to a significant open-source project and make an impact on the developer community.
• Work alongside experienced professionals in the field of processor IP development.

Join us this summer and be part of a project that bridges industry standards with the innovative RISC-V community!
