Date: Tuesday, April 5th, 2016 Speaker: David McIntyre Time: 6:30 PM (PT) Networking/Refreshments, 7:00 PM Presentation. Location: Cadence / Bldg 10, 2655 Seely Ave, San Jose, CA (map) |
Abstract
This presentation will provide an introduction to some of the latest trends and challenges in compute, storage and networking applications and will address design considerations using programmable FPGA technology when developing supporting solutions. Hyper-convergence between these three domains requires tight coupling of hardware resources at the functional and logical levels. The integrity of the components within each subsystem, e.g. evolving memory types can be properly managed through programmable technology. Applications will be shared to illustrate the performance advantages when using FPGA technology.
