Using FPGAs to accelerate High Performance Computing (HPC) applications is attractive, but has a huge associated cost: the time spent, not for developing efficient FPGA code but fo...
In this paper, the application of a cycle accurate binary translator for rapid prototyping of SoCs will be presented. This translator generates code to run on a rapid prototyping ...
Abstract—The demand for embedded computing power is continuously increasing and FPGAs are becoming very interesting computing platforms, as they provide huge amounts of customiza...
Pre-designed IP cores for FPGAs represent a huge intellectual and financial wealth that must be leveraged by any high-level tool targeting reconfigurable platforms. In this paper ...
Wavefront algorithms, such as the Smith-Waterman algorithm, are commonly used in bioinformatics for exact local and global sequence alignment. These algorithms are highly computat...
