Josef Spjut Better Hardware Noise

Better Hardware Noise Abstract: Noise such as Perlin Noise is used to provide some amount of repeatable pseudorandomness to many applications. In this document an example of a custom design to accelerate the generation of such noise is presented. This design could be used as a coprocessor, or could be used as a custom functional unit in a larger design. Two versions of the design are analyzed, ...
