OpenFPGA comprises a consortium of organizations aiming to foster and accelerate the incorporation of reconfigurable computing technology in high-performance and enterprise applications. Organized as a non-profit entity, OpenPFGA is serving the worldwide community through the activities of working groups, technology discussions, mailing lists and collaborative development of best practices and industry standards in reconfigurable computing. An initiative which started in 2004, spearheaded with leadership by an international cross-sector steering group and support of the Ohio Supercomputer Center, the consortium is shaping the world of reconfigurable computing. Presently, through the mailing list, working groups and other avenues, OpenFPGA includes participation from over 200 organizations spanning 40 countries worldwide.

Computational fluid dynamics is used to simulate movement of air and fuel through a jet engine. Through advanced modeling researchers aim to deliver higher efficiency engines with greater part life and lower noise while building fewer expensive prototypes. Compute times required for targeted sections of the CFD model have been significantly reduced by researchers at GE using FPGA technology. With increased development tool capabilities and improved portability and standards encouraged through OpenFPGA, time to solution for FPGA accelerated applications are expected to shorten from months to days. The complete presentation given at the SC2006 OpenFPGA Birds-of-a-Feather session is available here. |
