Hi,

We are excited for 2026 and have many exciting things planned for the year. We look forward to continuing the collaboration with you this year. It would be great to get an update on the status of the project and how you are getting on with the initial 'Getting Started' milestone.

John.

Thanks for replying. We have made the project tracker in the project page to try and help guide people through their project. I am sorry that the original project just added a set of monthly basic milestones that don't seem to be as helpful as have milestones based on the steps of the design flow.

You can remove the ones that are of no use 

Simply click the remove button next to the old and not used milestones.

You have some good and completed milestones and these match workflow stages. There is a entry to have the title be one of the workflow stages. You can simply update them as follows. Select the Edit button next to the Milestone...

Your Milestone 1: Determine scope and focus; this matches the design flow stage "Getting Started".

If you wanted to you could change it as follows. If you start typing getting started, it autocompletes,  'get...' then select it.

One the change has been made then you need to click the update button.

Don't forget to save the whole project page at the end of the edit. You can save it to your drafts until you are happy and then save it to editorial.

I hope this is helpful.

Hi,

Currently the Project Tracker in your project has no items underway or compelte.

Looking at your milestones this does not reflect the good progress you have made. Here is what I see...

Milestone #1: Determine scope and focus

This is like 'Getting Started' in Architectural Design.

Milestone #2: Determine the dataset and SNN model

This is like 'data model' in Architectural Design.

Milestone #3: Determine the requirement IPs

This is like 'IP Selection' in Architectural Design.

Milestone #4: Design SoC architecture

This is like 'Specifying a SoC' in Architectural Design.

Milestone #5: MATLAB simulation

This is fine, the system allows you to have your own named milestones if that is better for you to track things.

Milestone #7: IP verification with cocotb

This is like 'Verification Methodology' in Architectural Design.

If these milestones had their names changes to be milestones from the design flow stages then the tracker would look more like that of Sydney's project.

The good thing about the tracker is you can click on any of the links in the tracker and it allows you to see the design flow stage information and/or update your own milestone.

If you don't need a design flow step then simply uncheck the milestone.

I hope this helps.
