Lecture 6

Platforms III - Programmable Logic

Manfred Muecke

This lecture introduces programmable logic from a hardware point of view (with a bias towards their potential use in HPC).
Important topics:

• Introduction to FPGAs.

• Hardware Description Languages.

• Understanding FPGA performance figures.

• Gap between potential computing performance and programmer
  productivity.

Audience - Pre-requisite

The lecture is designed for students with no prior knowledge in programmable logic.

It does not build upon any of the preceding lectures. It is however the basis for all further lectures and is highly recommended to all students including ones having prior knowledge in programmable logic.
