Research Abstract |
We have investigated various approaches for accelerating computation using FPGAs and found a new approach that we call FDFM(Few DSP blocks and Few memory blocks) approach. Recent FPGAs have a number of embedded DSP blocks and memory blocks. The FDFM approach uses few DSP blocks and few memory blocks to install a co-processor to compute complicated computations. We have shown that RSA encryption, image pattern matching, etc. can be done very fast.
