We are hosting the first CoRAM tutorial in conjunction with MICRO-45.

Overview

In this tutorial, participant will develop portable, FPGA-based accelerators using the CoRAM Virtual Architecture. CoRAM provides a universal abstraction to the user that is both easy-to-use and portable across different FPGA platforms.

Schedule

The tutorial will be held during a half-day session on Sunday, Dec. 2, 2012 at the Fairmont Hotel Vancouver. This hands-on tutorial will cover a variety of topics, including:

• Overview of CoRAM architecture
• Compiler
• NoC Generation Using the CONNECT Network-on-Chip Generator
• Cross-platform targeting: Convey HC-x platforms, Xilinx ML605, Altera DE4, and Xilinx ZYNQ platform
• Memory loading and checking
• user I/O
• Application debugging
