From Craft to Kernel: A Governance-First Execution Architecture and Semantic ISA for Agentic Computers
Xiangyu Wen, Yuang Zhao, Xiaoyu Xu +9
The transition of agentic AI from brittle prototypes to production systems is stalled by a pervasive crisis of craft. We suggest that the prevailing orchestration paradigm-delegati…
CktEvo: Repository-Level RTL Code Benchmark for Design Evolution
Zhengyuan Shi, Jingxin Wang, Tairan Cheng +3
Register-Transfer Level (RTL) coding is an iterative, repository-scale process in which Power, Performance, and Area (PPA) emerge from interactions across many files and the downst…
From Craft to Constitution: A Governance-First Paradigm for Principled Agent Engineering
Qiang Xu, Xiangyu Wen, Changran Xu +2
The advent of powerful Large Language Models (LLMs) has ushered in an ``Age of the Agent,'' enabling autonomous systems to tackle complex goals. However, the transition from protot…
