Exact and heuristic allocation of multi-kernel applications to multi-FPGA platforms
FPGA-based accelerators demonstrated high energy efficiency compared to GPUs and CPUs. However, single FPGA designs may not achieve sufficient task parallelism. In this work, we optimize the mapping of high-performance multi-kernel applications, like Convolutional Neural Networks, to multi-FPGA platforms. First, we formulate the system level optimization problem, choosing within a huge design space the parallelism and number of compute units for each kernel in the pipeline. Then we solve it using a combination of Geometric Programming, producing the optimum performance solution given resource and DRAM bandwidth constraints, and a heuristic allocator of the compute units on the FPGA cluster.Peer ReviewedPostprint (author's final draft

10281 Abstracts Collection -- Dynamically Reconfigurable Architectures
From 11.07.10 to 16.07.10, Dagstuhl Seminar 10281 ``Dynamically Reconfigurable Architectures \u27\u27 was held
in Schloss Dagstuhl~--~Leibniz Center for Informatics.
During the seminar, several participants presented their current
research, and ongoing work and open problems were discussed. Abstracts of
the presentations given during the seminar as well as abstracts of
seminar results and ideas are put together in this paper. The first section
describes the seminar topics and goals in general.
