Embedded designers have implemented heterogeneous architectures since the advent of commercially viable FPGAs. Initially, FPGAs acted primarily as glue logic for an interface between processing ...

Data-centre equipment manufacturers have long been keen to take advantage of the massive parallelism possible with FPGAs to achieve the processing performance and I/O bandwidth needed to keep pace ...

Intel Corp. has spent a lot of effort pushing the concept of its Field Programmable Gate Arrays, which can be used to accelerate various computing tasks such as artificial intelligence and machine ...

Fig 1. Altera’s NIOS II Embedded Evaluation Kit is a platform for checking out the 32-bit NIOS II soft-core processor. Fig 2. Microsemi’s SmartFusion Evaluation Kit has an FPGA with a hard-core Arm ...

Recently, Brian Bailey organized a round table that resulted in a two-part article called Supporting CPUs Plus FPGAs. The experts discussed the evolving reality of systems design based on FPGAs and ...

As data centers are called upon to handle an explosion of unstructured data fed into a variety of cutting-edge applications, the future for FPGAs looks bright. That’s because FPGAs, or field ...

FPGAs can meet the performance demands of artificial intelligence and big data which are seeing exponential global growth FPGAs increase processing speeds and reduce hardware costs by running massive ...
