He is a case study in deployment: IIIT Hyderabad Director on V Kamakoti’s achievements

India’s semiconductor push has gathered pace in recent years, but according to IIIT Hyderabad Director Prof Sandeep K Shukla, IIT Madras Director Professor V Kamakoti has been working towards indigenous processor design long before it became a national priority. “Prof Kamakoti started working on the SHAKTI processor – which is a RISC-V architecture-based processor, back in the early 2000s, and I recall that his team worked with Bluespec Inc to write the micro-architectural specification of the processor in Bluespec language,” Prof Shukla told India Today. Reflecting on Prof Kamakoti’s role in taking the project from the laboratory to the wider ecosystem, Prof Shukla said SHAKTI represents more than a successful processor project. Rather, he said, it demonstrates how long-term academic research can eventually translate into real-world impact. “Prof V Kamakoti’s role is a good case study in how long-horizon academic research reaches deployment,” he said.
