Introduction - H2RC: Third International Workshop on Heterogeneous Computing with Reconfigurable Logic
Event Type
Workshop

Location402-403-404
DescriptionFor the third time in a row, this workshop will bring together application experts, software developers, and hardware engineers to share experiences and best practices leveraging reconfigurable logic in HPC and “Big Data” applications. In particular, the workshop will focus on sharing experiences and techniques for accelerating applications and/or improving energy efficiency with FPGAs using OpenCL, OpenMP, OpenACC, C, and C++ based design flows, which enable and improve cross-platform functional and performance portability. Particular emphasis is given to cross-platform comparisons that foster a better understanding within the industry and research community on what are the best mappings of applications to a diverse range of hardware architectures that are available today (e.g., FPGA vs. GPU vs. Many-cores and hybrid devices), and on how to most effectively achieve cross-platform compatibility.
