Research Project on FPGA Parallel Heterogeneous Computing
https://github.com/yuwen41200/fpga-computing/raw/master/docs/final.pdf
This is a subproject of sunset1995/parallel_analysis.
The targeted board is Xilinx Virtex-5 ML506.
The host program runs on Ubuntu Linux 14.04 LTS.
This project uses an Xillybus IP core for data transmission over an PCIe interface.
One can download it for free from xillybus.com for academic purposes.
For more information, please refer to the licensing page.
The RTL design is done with Xilinx ISE Design Suite 14.7.
