Applications Enabled by FPGA-Based Technology

Cryptographic Applications using FPGA Technology

Cryptographic systems have become a part of our daily life through the need of security of many common activities such as communication, payments, data transfers etc. The best support in design and implementation of cryptographic applications is offered by embedded systems such as ASICs and FPGAs. In the past few years, the increase in performance of FPGAs has made them key components in implem...

FPGA-enabled computing architectures

IN 1987, Tsugio Makimoto described the semiconductor industry swings between standardization and customization every decade. According to Makimoto, the pendulum has currently swung to standardized parts, most prominently FPGA devices. This emphasis should last through 2007 when system designers will once again feel the pressure to differentiate products with custom chip designs. With advances i...

Process-Oriented CRM Enabled by Component-Based Workflow Technology

To remain competitive, companies are starting to organise their work around customercentered business processes that cross functional and organisational boundaries. Customer-relationship management is becoming more important than ever before. This paper proposes a new type of process-oriented CRM system suitable for Small-to-Medium Enterprises (SMEs) seeking to integrate a large number of servi...

An FPGA-Based Emulation Platform For Optical-Enabled System

This paper introduces an FPGA-based emulation platform for optical-enabled computer system researches. As electrical links are reaching their physical limits, optical technologies begin increasingly to play a role in computer systems by enabling high speed IO, optical memory extension and system bus links. With its excellent latency, bandwidth, power and scalability performance, optical links w...
