Computing is so last century

If you have a question about this talk, please contact Dr Abraham Martin.

Back in about 1980 we started building microprocessors into electronic equipment, because they could do, quite easily, things that were difficult or expensive to do with hard-wired logic. Now we have FPG As that can do, quite easily, things (particularly in the areas such as processing live media) that need a lot of power to do with processors. And yet we haven’t moved on from a mindset based on general-purpose CPUs: FPGA vendors build hard-wired CPUs into their products, and high-level synthesis of FPGA logic requires the source to be written in languages such as C. This talk explores how we might do better.
