PROFILE

William Cunningham

Contributed to the Purdue-SoCET/RISCVBusiness repository by integrating the RV32M shift-add multiplier and enhancing testbench infrastructure for more deterministic validation and error handling. Used SystemVerilog and YAML scripting to refactor multiplier selection and streamline configuration management, resulting in improved repository hygiene and easier onboarding. Further simplified the RISC-V core by removing the 'm' extension from ISA configurations and eliminating obsolete build files, reducing maintenance overhead. In a subsequent update, removed the SparCE sparsity optimization feature across all interfaces and modules, aligning the codebase with a leaner product roadmap and enabling faster, more focused maintenance of the embedded hardware design.

October 2025 monthly summary for Purdue-SoCET/RISCVBusiness: Completed the removal of the SparCE sparsity optimization feature from the RISC-V business core, including all interfaces, module implementations, and configuration options across the codebase. This deprecation reduces maintenance surface, simplifies the product, and aligns the roadmap with a leaner core. The change is captured in a single commit, reinforcing maintainability and reducing sparsity-path risks moving forward.
