Journal ArticleDOI
Reconfigurable computing: architectures and design methods
Tim Todman,George A. Constantinides,Steven J. E. Wilton,Oskar Mencer,Wayne Luk,Peter Y. K. Cheung +5 more
TL;DR: It is shown that reconfigurable computing designs are capable of achieving up to 500 times speedup and 70% energy savings over microprocessor implementations for specific applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accuracy-Guaranteed Bit-Width Optimization
TL;DR: An automated static approach for optimizing bit widths of fixed-point feedforward designs with guaranteed accuracy, called MiniBit, is presented and is demonstrated with polynomial approximation, RGB-to-YCbCr conversion, matrix multiplication, B-splines, and discrete cosine transform placed and routed on a Xilinx Virtex-4 FPGA.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A comparison of CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, and massively parallel processor arrays for random number generation
TL;DR: For each platform, the most appropriate algorithm for generating each type of number is determined, then the peak generation rate and estimated power efficiency for each device are calculated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gaussian random number generators
TL;DR: The algorithms underlying various GRNGs are described, their computational requirements are compared, and the quality of the random numbers are examined with emphasis on the behaviour in the tail region of the Gaussian probability density function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pipeline vectorization
Markus Weinhardt,Wayne Luk +1 more
TL;DR: This paper presents pipeline vectorization, a method for synthesizing hardware pipelines based on software vectorizing compilers that improves efficiency and ease of development of hardware designs, particularly for users with little electronics design experience.
