For several years, GPU acceleration matched with Intel Xeon processors were the dominating news items in hardware at the annual Supercomputing Conference. However, this year that trend shifted in ...

FPGAs are being chosen more and more frequently to comprise the heart of the modern electronic system. There are several possible reasons for this – low cost, ready availability and increasing ...

We often think that not enough people are building things with FPGAs. We also love the retrotechtacular posts on old computer hardware. So it was hard to pass up [karlwoodward’s] post about the Chip ...

The ubiquitous field-programmable gate array (FPGA) is finding use as a software accelerator in many applications, including the communications, image processing, biomedical, and scientific computing ...

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 ...

Getting into FPGA design isn’t a monolithic experience. You have to figure out a toolchain, learn how to think in hardware during the design, and translate that into working Verliog. The end goal is ...

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 ...

San Jose, Calif. August 28, 2012—Altera Corporation (Nasdaq: ALTR) today announced its OpenCL (Open Computing Language) for FPGAs Early Access Program (EAP), enabling customers to get a first look ...

The quest for better throughput, faster changeover times, and less waste and downtimes has made machine-automation systems more complicated. Besides handling logic or process controls, systems today ...

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 ...
