Implementation and Performance Traits of Select Reconfigurable Computing Platforms

The purpose of this project was to implement and run performance benchmarks on various reconfigurable computing (RC) platforms. During the process of implementation and benchmarking, all results as well as lessons learned where documented. Comparisons against pure software implementations where also made. In this paper we presented the results for three RC platforms: DS1002 development [...]

Small8 – My version of an 8-bit computer

Small8 – My version of an 8-bit computer

My final project in my Digital Design class was to design a simple 8-bit computer (called Small8) using VHDL and Altera’s Cyclone FPGA. Small8 consists of an 8-bit processor (64K address space), RAM, and I/O ports. The Small8′s design is split into three sections: Overall Architecture, Central Processing Unit (CPU), and External Components. For more information [...]
