FPGA-based programmable data analysis and compression front end for GPU
Abstract:
Methods, devices, and systems for information communication. Information transmitted from a host to a graphics processing unit (GPU) is received by information analysis circuitry of a field-programmable gate array (FPGA). A pattern in the information is determined by the information analysis circuitry. A predicted information pattern is determined, by the information analysis circuitry, based on the information. An indication of the predicted information pattern is transmitted to the host. Responsive to a signal from the host based on the predicted information pattern, the FPGA is reprogrammed to implement decompression circuitry based on the predicted information pattern. In some implementations, the information includes a plurality of packets. In some implementations, the predicted information pattern includes a pattern in a plurality of packets. In some implementations, the predicted information pattern includes a zero data pattern.
