When it comes to speeding up computationally intensive workloads, GPUs are not the only game in town. FPGAs (field-programmable gate arrays) are also gaining traction in data centers. While companies ...

Field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are so-called because they are structured very much like the now-obsolete “gate array” form of application specific integrated circuit (ASIC). In fact, FPGAs ...

FPGAs are reaching deeper and wider inside of automobiles, playing an increasingly important role across more systems within a vehicle as the electronic content continues to grow. The role of FPGAs in ...

Over a decade ago we would not have expected accelerators to have be commonplace in the datacenter. While they are not pervasive, a host of new workloads are ripe for acceleration and porting work has ...

FPGAs have long been used in the early stages of any new digital technology, given their utility for prototyping and rapid evolution. But with machine learning, FPGAs are showing benefits beyond those ...

There has been plenty of talk about where FPGA acceleration might fit into high performance computing but there are only a few testbeds and purpose-built clusters pushing this vision forward for ...

In this special guest feature from Scientific Computing World, Robert Roe writes that FPGAs provide an early insight into possibile architectural specialization options for HPC and machine learning.

This paper will explain how new ASSP ventures face challenges that can derail success of a product even before the first device is sold, including market entry barriers such as time to market ...

It’s been a few years since the introduction of the first Open Source toolchain for FPGAs. You would think a free and Open way to program FPGAs would be a boon for hardware development, but so far ...

Intel is building the foundation for the modern data center, and its solution to the exponential data growth is not more CPU power, but field programmable gate array (FPGA) accelerators. Must read: ...

FPGAs enjoy massive popularity among advanced digital designers, helping bring customized low- and mid-volume designs to market quickly without investments in ASICs. FPGAs also blend performance with ...
