Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In this paper, we propose a portable framework for PCI Express interface. The proposed framework provides DMA transfer and interruption between a host PC and an FPGA board to reduce development time for acceleration board implementation. The proposed framework provides an interface circuit designed by using Altera's SOPC Builder to enhance portability. The proposed framework functions on different Altera's FPGA boards to support PCI Express. The proposed framework is easy to be ported. The PROGRAPE system is chosen as an example of the application. The PROGRAPE system is specialized for interparticle calculation. A new PROGRAPE system with the proposed framework is implemented on two different size FPGA boards to evaluate portability and the performance of interparticle calculation. As a result, the new PROGRAPE system is easy to be ported to a larger FPGA board. The ported system achieves higher performance without significant redesign.
