Subject: [oc] FPGA based Co-processor for reducing CPU burden on TCP/IP
processing
hi rickythere are at least two companies out there with products and services to support your idea. also cray is selling a high performance computing system with such a combination. http://www.drccomputer.com/drc/modules.html http://www.xtremedatainc.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=102&Itemid=156
yes, anything closed and high priced.
if you had the idea to make an homebrew board for that, for get it. hypertransport is to fast to make a simple board by your self. if you have a lot of experience with hardware design it's still possible but you need a lot of time and realy good tools to manage it.
what is your background? (software engineer, hardware engineer, embedded developer,...)
greetings christoph
