XDI cluster
Thanks in part to generous donations from Altera, a cluster of one XD2000f and four XD1000
development systems from XtremeData
Inc. is available in our lab and supports a variety of research
activities in reconfigurable and dual-paradigm computing. This server
technology features the most powerful
Stratix-II FPGAs made by Altera (Stratix-II
2S180 -3) on a small board that operates in an AMD Opteron socket of a
multiprocessor Linux machine. This relatively new approach to RC systems
architecture offers many exciting, potential advantages due to the close
proximity, high bandwidth, and low latency between FPGA and
microprocessor devices via HyperTransport. More information on the
XD1000 and XD2000f modules and development station is available here.
