Seminar: New SoC platforms for Al and Algorithm Acceleration – Trento (Italy)

Seminar: New SoC platforms for Al and Algorithm Acceleration

This talk as in the context of the Joint ICTP-IAEA School on FPGA-based SoC and its Applications to Nuclear and Scientific Instrumentation. https://indico.ictp.it/event/9933/

Description:

The rapid rise of technologies driving data-intensive applications such as 5G, AI, and machine learning has strained the capabilities of CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, and SoCs. With the end of Moore’s Law significantly limiting the advantages of moving to smaller process nodes, architectural innovation is a must for any devices intending to solve the challenges posed by these and other demanding applications.

Versal® adaptive compute acceleration platforms (ACAPs) represent a significant evolution over traditional FPGAs and SoCs, supplementing the strengths of traditional programmable logic with powerful heterogeneous compute engines and a new software-programmable silicon infrastructure.

These platforms integrate a heterogeneous compute architecture with CPUs, GPUs and FPGAs, enabling the development of scalar, adaptable and intelligent engines, tightly coupled with custom memory hierarchies and a Network-on-Chip.

In this webinar, we’ll cover the following:

  • An overview of the Versal architecture and the Versal series
  • How the Versal architecture delivers performance gains at the system-level
  • A demonstration of the programmable network on chip (NoC), one of the key features accelerating productivity for system designers
  • Vitis design flows for Versal devices.
  • Versal ACAP product updates: Versal AI edge, HBM, Prime and AI core.

The emergence of a new generation of Adaptive Compute Acceleration Platforms opens up new possibilities for both software and hardware developers.
