Company overview 

Ylichron is the first spin off company of ENEA (the Italian Agency for the New Technologies, the Energy and the Environment)

Ylichron goal is to provide products and services aimed at designing and developing efficient HW/SW computing solutions for the customer needs.

Depending on the problems and on the user needs, Ylichron solutions are based on the efficient implementation of algorithms either on ad hoc designed parallel architectures, built on top of the FPGA technology, or on "off the shelf" architectures, both conventional and parallel, programmed to solve the customer needs in a fast and reliable way.

Ylichron owns a software technology to efficiently and rapidly design dedicated parallel architectures starting from specifics expressed through a conventional C program.

This technology has been developed through the research activities of the Ylichron founders - formerly within the Electronic Engineering Department of the University “La Sapienza” in Rome and, later, within ENEA (the Italian Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Environment) - and is currently improved through the HARWEST research project (funded by MUR, the Italian ministry for university and scientific and technological research).

Ylichron know-how covers a broad range of topics, from optimization to the simulation of physical phenomena, from bioinformatics to the analysis of images and signals, from parallel processing to the design of embedded parallel architectures.

The name Ylichron comes from the fusion of the Greek words ulh (matter) and cronos (time), to indicate that Ylichron, being born to give efficient answers to computational problems arising in technical and scientific fields, implements algorithms onto parallel architectures optimizing both the number of resources used (ulh) and the scheduling of such resources (cronos).
