Algorithmic Trading: A brief, computational finance case study on data centre FPGAs

Increasingly FPGAs will be deployed at scale due to the need for increased need for power efficient computation and improved high level synthesis tool flows, creating a new category of device: data centre FPGAs. A method for using these FPGAs is to identify what proportion of a given workload would benefit from being implemented upon the available FPGAs while minimising communication off-chip. As part of the implementation of these tasks, care should be taken in identifying the parallel executio...
