I worked on a vectorized additive synthesis engine for the T0 vector microprocessor under the supervision of Prof. John Wawrzynek. The work was done in association with folks at CNMAT (the Center for New Music and Audio Technologies), an affiliate research lab of the Berkeley Music department.

A more detailed description is available.
