39th IEEE International System-on-Chip Conference RIGOLETTO Workshop
- Details
We are delighted to announce the RIGOLETTO workshop at IEEE SOCC 2026. The workshop is a platform to showcase preliminary research results from the RIGOLETTO consortium members, disseminate RIGOLETTO's strategic mission, and provide opportunities for industry, academia and RIGOLETTO consortium members to engage in bilateral discussions on the EU's System-on-Chip and semiconductor-related strategic technology roadmap. The workshop will also feature dedicated meetings for consortium members to discuss and align collaboration and to develop new partnerships between consortium members and the wider System-on-Chip community.
Furthermore, workshop delegates will have the opportunity to attend the IEEE International System-on-Chip Conference sessions, which offer a three-day programme of industry and academic presentations, as well as keynotes from some of the leading minds in the field.

RIGOLETTO at IntelliSys 2026: GenAI-Driven RISC-V Supply Chain Exploration
- Details
On Friday, 4 September 2026, RIGOLETTO partner Technical University of Munich (TUM) will present new research at the 12th Intelligent Systems Conference - IntelliSys 2026.
Dr. Nenad Petrovic will present the paper “GenAI-Driven Approach to RISC-V Supply Chain Exploration”, co-authored by André Schamschurko, Yingjie Xu and Alois Knoll. The presentation is part of the Industrial & Enterprise AI session, scheduled for 15:45–17:00 CEST.
The work introduces a GenAI-supported approach for analysing the RISC-V supply chain. It combines Large Language Models (LLMs), Vision-Language Models (VLMs) and Model-Driven Engineering to extract and structure information from heterogeneous sources such as technical documents, diagrams and tables. The resulting knowledge can be represented in a knowledge graph and analysed to identify dependencies, potential bottlenecks and supply-chain risks.
This research is closely related to RIGOLETTO’s goal of strengthening the European RISC-V ecosystem and developing next-generation RISC-V-based automotive computing platforms. TUM contributes to RIGOLETTO with research on AI/ML-based methods supporting the development and analysis of RISC-V systems.
RIGOLETTO Consortium Meets in Herzogenaurach to Drive the Next Project Phase
- Details
On 7–8 July 2026, the RIGOLETTO consortium comes together in Herzogenaurach, Germany, for an intensive two-day project meeting hosted by Schaeffler. With partners from across Europe on site, the meeting marks an important step in aligning the consortium, reviewing progress, and preparing the project for its next major milestones.
The agenda focuses on the current project status, key achievements across all work packages, and the preparation of Period 1 reporting and the first project review.

RIGOLETTO strengthens European microelectronics for future vehicles
- Details
RISC-V-based computing platforms for software-defined vehicles Application area
Microelectronics is a key technology for digitalization and a cornerstone of Europe’s technological sovereignty. Within the European CHIPS partnership, RIGOLETTO contributes to the development of advanced hardware solutions for future electrified and autonomous vehicles.
The RIGOLETTO European research project officially began on 1 July 2025. The project brings together partners from industry and research to develop advanced microelectronics solutions for future vehicle architectures. RIGOLETTO focuses on an open RISC-V-based hardware platform for software-defined, electrified and autonomous vehicles. It investigates scalable reference processors, dedicated accelerators for applications such as artificial intelligence, and the required software toolchains for efficient and secure development. These components will be integrated into a reference computing platform and demonstrated in practical use cases.
