Exploring the Limits of Query Pushdown for SQL Acceleration on FPGAs

There has been an increasing interest in moving computation closer to storage in recent years due to significant improvements in memory technology. FPGAs were proven to be an exciting candidate for accelerating database workloads since they provide an energy-efficient, reconfigurable and high-performance computation platform. Therefore, FPGAs...

Dataflow Hardware Design for Big Data Acceleration Using Typed Interfaces

Recent trends in large-scale computing demonstrate continuous growth in the need for raw processing performance. At the same time, the slowdown of vertical scaling pushes the industry towards more energy-efficient heterogeneous architectures. With the appearance of FPGAs in the cloud and data centers, a new architecture is offered for offloading...
