High-performance computing using a reconfigurable accelerator

This paper introduces the MoM-3 as a reconfigurable accelerator for high performance computing at a moderate price. By using a new machine paradigm to trigger the operations in the MoM-3, this accelerator is especially suited to scientific algorithms, where the hardware structure can be configured to match the structure of the algorithm. The MoM-3 efficiently uses reconfigurable logic devices t...

Elements of High-Performance Reconfigurable Computing

Numerous application areas, including bioinformatics and computational biology (BCB), demand increasing amounts of processing capability. In many cases, the computation cores and data types are suited to field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). The challenge is identifying those design techniques that can extract high performance from the FPGA fabric while allowing efficient development of produ...

High Performance Reconfigurable Computing for Cholesky Decomposition

This paper proposes a hardware accelerator for Cholesky decomposition on FPGAs by designing a single triangular linear equation solver. Good performance is achieved by reordering the computation of Cholesky factorization algorithms and thus alleviating the data dependency. The dedicated hardware architecture for solving triangular linear equations is designed and implemented for different accur...
