Talk Title: Wireless Network for FPGA-based Cluster System
Abstract: This talk describes a wireless network coupled with an FPGA-based cluster system. The proposed system enables a lightweight approach for FPGA devices to exchange information directly. Customizable monitoring facilities are developed to support reconfiguring a distributed application dynamically at run time, to reduce packet latency and to enhance power consumption. An N-Body simulation application is used to demonstrate the effectiveness and potential of the proposed system.
