Akshath Raghav contributed to the Purdue-SoCET/tensor-core and related repositories by developing and integrating hardware modules such as crossbar interconnects, scratchpad memory interfaces, and RISC-V ISA extensions. He applied SystemVerilog and Verilog to implement and verify new processor features, including the RV32ZC conditional instructions, and enhanced simulation and testbench infrastructure for robust validation. His work included refactoring project structure, improving build systems with Makefile scripting, and establishing onboarding documentation to streamline team workflows. Through careful code organization and technical documentation, Akshath enabled maintainable scaling and reliable integration of complex digital logic and memory systems across the project.
