 sity of Cambridge\, Computer Laboratory.

DESCRIPTION:Many problems in scientific computing can be accelerated using
  \nFPGA or GPU execution resources. The FPGA approach\, in particular\, al
 so generally yields a significant saving in execution energy. Several clou
 d service providers now provide FPGA platforms\, but problems remain with 
 virtualisation and usability.\n\nThis seminar will describe some current a
 pproaches to harnessing FPGA as a total or partial replacement for the Von
  Neumann architecure with emphasis on the Kiwi system that accelerates C# 
 and other dotnet languages.\n\nKeywords: High-level synthesis.
