Abstract(in English) | This paper presents an architecture and its performance model of an LBM accelerator to be implemented on a tightly-coupled FPGA cluster. Our tightly-coupled FPGA cluster has a ID ring for an accelerator-domain network (ADN) which allows FPGAs to send and receive data with low communication overhead. Our LBM accelerator is based on stream computation with scheduling approproate to ADN. We formulate a sustained-performance model of the accelerator. With the model, we show that the network bandwidth is much more important than the memory bandwidth. This result demonstrates the importance of ADN in the tightly-coupled FPGA cluster. |
