Abstract :
The WILDFORCETM XL card is the newest addition to the WILDFIRETM family of reconfigurable computing engines. The high-performance WILDFORCETM XL card takes advantage of the fast, high-capacity, low-power Xilinx XC4000-XL FPGAs (field programmable gate arrays) processing elements. This paper introduces the WILDFORCETM XL custom computing machine and describes an example application that uses the new technology
