Leaving CUHK

Dear All, I will be leaving CUHK at the end of August after having spent a wonderful 12 years here. I will be going to my alma mater, the School of Electrical and Information Engineering at the University of Sydney and my new website (with contact details) is http://www.ee.usyd.edu.au/~phwl. I had a great time here, was very productive and made a lot of friends. Thank you very much for helping to make it such a wonderful period for me and I hope you will look me up if you visit Sydney.

Cube project

We have been working with Imperial College to developed a 512-FPGA cube, made from 64-FPGA boards. The board itself is very large (32x48cm) and the photograph below doesn't really give much feel for its size. More information about this project is available via this link.
