Maxeler Technologies supports universities to develop and teach high performance, low power supercomputing
As microprocessors reach the limits of attainable clock frequency, acceptable power consumption and multi-core scalability, Field-programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are emerging as a powerful solution for high performance, low power computing. Low power means that the total energy consumed to complete the computation of an application result is low. Maxeler's solutions, using Xilinx programmable logic, speed up processing times by 20-50x over state-of-the-art, off-the-shelf microprocessors with over 90 percent reduction in energy usage and over 95 percent reduction in datacenter space.
