pvFPGA: paravirtualising an FPGA-based hardware accelerator towards general purpose computing
2017
International Journal of High Performance Computing and Networking
This paper presents an ameliorated design of pvFPGA, which is a novel system design solution for virtualising an FPGA-based hardware accelerator by a virtual machine monitor (VMM). The accelerator design on the FPGA can be used for accelerating various applications, regardless of the application computation latencies. In the implementation, we adopt the Xen VMM to build a paravirtualised environment, and a Xilinx Virtex-6 as an FPGA accelerator. The data transferred between the x86 server and
