One of the most essential performance metrics is the throughput, which highly depends on the algorithm, hardware implementation architecture, coding style, and options of tools. The maximum throughput is calculated based on the maximum clock frequency supported by each algorithm. A common way of determining the maximum clock frequency is static timing analysis provided by the CAD toolsets such as Xilinx ISE, Xilinx Vivado, and Altera Quartus Prime. In this project, we have developed a universal testbed, which is capable of measuring the maximum clock frequency experimentally, using a prototyping board. We are targeting cryptographic hardware cores, such as implementations of SHA-3 candidates. Our testbed is designed using a Zynq platform and takes advantage of software/hardware co-design. It supports two separate clock domains, one for a hardware module under test, and the other for the communication between an ARM core and hardware accelerator. We measured the maximum clock frequency and the execution time of 12 Round 2 SHA-3 candidates experimentally on ZedBoard and compared the results with the frequencies reported by Xilinx Vivado. Our results indicate that depending on the characteristics of each algorithm, we may achieve either much higher or the same experimental frequency than the results reported by the tools using static timing analysis. This behavior is then further analyzed, and the relevant conclusions drawn.","PeriodicalId":431909,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on ReConFigurable Computing and FPGAs (ReConFig)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126156050","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, we present the concept and implementation of a hardware unit called ReOrder that serves as a converter for multiple parallel streams of data read from and written to an accelerator. Our technique and programmable design allows flexible data access and connects different stream processing accelerators independent of the host data layout. In order to achieve a high accelerator throughput, it is necessary to determine an optimized datapath according to the accelerator's internal schedule of input and output data. We are concerned with an online setting, in which either the data layout (e.g., in the case of modern database systems) or the accelerator operational mode change dynamically. Therefore, an algorithm is required which can be used at “runtime” in order to maintain an optimized datapath configuration. We propose an efficient heuristic algorithm and corresponding FPGA design that is able to translate arbitrary (multi-source) data layouts of the connected host system to generate any specified data stream of the accelerator at runtime within ms.","PeriodicalId":431909,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on ReConFigurable Computing and FPGAs (ReConFig)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130379407","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, existing measuring instruments are unable to fully exploit the capability of ATOM. For example, the volume of imaging data-set of ATOM quickly increases beyond the capacity of available onboard buffer of a modern high-speed oscilloscope. This paper presents an open source, FPGA-based solution which serves as a dual role of collecting low-level signals from ATOM frontend as well as processing and transferring data to backing store. Optical signals are sampled by a high-speed analog-to-digital converter and the resulting values are collected by an FPGA. The quantized values received are then further processed and divided into four segments for subsequent data transfer with 10 Gbit Ethernet. Four computing units are attached to these channels with direct connection in order to reliably receive the data for post-processing. Experiments show that, with decent quality images for single-cell analysis, the proposed system can store 10x more dataset than existing high-end oscilloscope. With 8x decrease in equipment cost, the proposed FPGA-based system will definitely be beneficial for many bio imaging applications with ATOM technology such as rare cancer cell imaging and identification.","PeriodicalId":431909,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on ReConFigurable Computing and FPGAs (ReConFig)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131204906","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This results in a resource overhead, which is most of the time unnecessary. To overcome this problem, adaptive mitigation techniques are used. This technique is a trade-off between two parameters, such as performance and reliability, according to different operating modes by toggling between these modes. In this context, we propose an Adaptive Single-Event Effect Mitigation (ASEEM) method. It is based on adaptive reconfiguration of an FPGA between two modes, specifically a performance mode and a high reliability mode. The performance mode offers high processing power and thus higher signal processing throughput. We evaluate ASEEM by calculating results with particle data from 2010 until 2016 for one space-grade and two commercial-grade FPGAs. Based on radiation data, we calculate upset rates, availability, performance and performability. We discuss one realization of ASEEM in detail with fixed upset rates. The examples presented in this paper show a reduction of the upset rate form a sixth to a ninth (compared with the performance mode) and the availability of the high processing power over 90 % in the considered time interval. We conclude that the investigated ASEEM realization is optimal for moderate and long mean times to repair. In a processing case study, with a fixed mean time to repair of one hour, we obtain a performability improvement of 14% and an availability improvement of 21 % over the performance mode for an FPGA using the latest semiconductor technology.","PeriodicalId":431909,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on ReConFigurable Computing and FPGAs (ReConFig)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124246178","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
