Over the past decade, soft microprocessors and vector processors have been extensively
used in FPGAs for a wide variety of applications. However, it is difficult to straightforwardly …

A major issue facing the widespread use of FPGAs as accelerators is their programmability
wall: the difficulty of hardware design and the long synthesis times. Overlays-pre …

FPGAs offer attractive power and performance for many applications, especially relative to
traditional sequential architectures. In spite of these advantages, FPGAs have been …

The use of FPGAs as compute accelerators has been demonstrated by numerous
researchers as an effective solution to meet the performance requirement across many …

Driven by its high flexibility, good performance and energy efficiency, GPGPU has taken on
an increasingly important role in embedded systems. In this paper, we present the basic …

Dynamic reconfiguration provides flexibility in the design and management of reconfigurable
computing (RC) systems such that numerous applications would be mapped into limited …

This paper describes a high performance, low power, and highly flexible cryptographic
processor, Cryptoraptor, which is designed to support both today's and tomorrow's …

Turkey emphasized decades ago that taking exploratory findings as confirmatory is
“destructively foolish”. We reframe recent conversations about the reliability of results from …

High-level FPGA synthesis tools aim to increase the productivity of FPGAs and to adopt them
among software developers and domain experts. OpenCL is a specification introduced for …
