It introduces FPGA technology, its\nprogramming model, and how various applications can be implemented on FPGAs\nwithout going through low-level hardware design phases. Readers will get a\nrealistic sense for problems that are suited for FPGAs and how to implement\nthem from a software designer’s point of view. \nThe authors demonstrate that FPGAs and their programming model reflect\nthe needs of stream processing problems much better than traditional CPU or GPU\narchitectures, making them well-suited for a wide variety of systems, from\nembedded systems performing sensor processing to large setups for Big Data\nnumber crunching.  This book serves as an\ninvaluable tool for software designers and FPGA design engineers who are interested\nin high design productivity through behavioural synthesis, domain-specific\ncompilation, and FPGA overlays.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduces FPGA technology to software\ndevelopers by giving an overview of FPGA programming models and design tools,\nas well as various application examples;\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides a holistic analysis of the topic and\nenables developers to tackle the architectural needs for Big Data processing\nwith FPGAs;\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplains the reasons for the energy efficiency\nand performance benefits of FPGA processing;\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides a user-oriented\napproach and a sense for where and how to apply FPGA technology.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2018-05-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783319799490\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-319-26408-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 327\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45385390063756,"sku":"9783319799490","price":107.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783319799490.jpg?v=1776022104","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783319799490","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
