High Throughput Parallel Computation with High Bandwidth Memory on FPGA

With the increase of available storage bandwidth, CPUs can not keep up with the compute throughput needed to process this amount of incoming data. GPUs and FPGAs are generally better suited for such tasks. To assist FPGAs in their functions, some boards are equipped with one or more high bandwidth memory (HBM) stacks, with a bandwidth of 230 GB...

High Throughput Sorting on FPGAs using High Bandwidth Memory

In this thesis we explore the acceleration of sorting algorithms on FPGAs using high bandwidth memory (HBM). The target application is an FPGA as an accelerator in an OpenCAPI enabled system, that enables the accelerator to access main memory of the host at a bandwidth of 25 GB/s for either read or write. We explore under what read and write...
