Abstract(in English) UPACS, a package for CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics), is an attractive and practical application for high speed computing. However, it is also a challenging target to accelerate by using supercomputer due to its complex memory access pattern. Although it is a relatively large scale application, the recent growth of FPGA resource allows us to implement on hardware. Our goal is hardware implementation of UPACS onto FLOPS-2D : a multi-FPGA system. We must consider the best way to divide the designed circuits into an FPGA and adjust arithmetic unit's parameters in order to exploit the potential of each FPGA when we use a multi-FPGA system. In this paper, the pipeline which is easy to reconfigure based on the algorithm is implemented. Then, a tool which optimizes arithmetic unit's parameters and reconfigures the pipeline structure is designed. By using this tool, 12.4 times faster result than software execution is estimated.
