Abstract
Besides off-the-shelf graphics cards, reconfigurable hardware has been gaining attention in the field of massively parallel high-performance computing as well. Several computer manufacturers offer FPGA-based accelerator components together with dedicated libraries in order to speed up the execution of numerically intensive codes. Such hardware components are particularly appropriate for applications in the signal processing domain such as image or video compression, for instance.
