Have three hour-long interviews scheduled with Intel for next week - they were kind enough to list the topics (computer architecture, validation, software, logic) so I'm just hoping I have my bases covered. I know quite a bit about SV and UVM, software I should have covered, but computer architecture is a broad enough term that I'm not sure what to expect. Does logic mean your typical brain teaser questions as well, or more design-oriented?
Honestly really looking forward to the interviews, thanks for the help!

2. Combinational logic design:
-Build logic gate X using only Y
-Design a barrel mux
-Various adder designs
3. State Machine design
- Pattern recognition
- Generate Clock X with a period nZ using Clock Y with period Z
4. FIFO/RAM design
5. Clock domain crossing design principles
- Async FIFO design
- Buffer size calculation
6. Various arbitration schemes/design
7. Floating point arithmetic (not very common unless it’s a arithmetic block role)

Thanks for posting
Yes, do expect some logical questions. Probability based or some algorithm structure based.
Regarding CMOS, I would say just pick an Inverter. Look at sizing of PMOS-NMOS. Why PMOS size greater than NMOS, how electron channel works, why you have a capacitor to ground the current, what is a crowbar circuit , etc. but I would touch at in the end.
For SV, UVM - you should be able to build a tb at class level. Scoreboard, Monitor questions and OOP questions are most common.
