Xilinx Teams with Leading Universities Around the World to Establish Adaptive Compute Research Clusters - Seite 3

The cluster at NUS will boost new systems and applications research and development with heterogeneous computing platforms. It will also become a hub for attracting researchers and students from Asia to promote international collaborations as well as for establishing a global test-bed with the other XACC centers in Asia, Europe and the United States.

The research will be led by Associate Professor Bingsheng He, Associate Professor Weng-Fai Wong and Professor Tulika Mitra from the Department of Computer Science at the NUS School of Computing. Assoc. Prof. He serves as Chair of the Joint Academic Committee of Computer Engineering Program and Assistant Dean (Graduate Studies) at the School.

“We would like to acknowledge the generous support from Xilinx to set up this research infrastructure at the NUS School of Computing,” said Assoc. Prof. He. “Our colleagues have been conducting pioneering research with FPGAs in different domains, such as database, machine learning, systems and networking, internet of things, and computer architecture. With the leading-edge FPGA platforms from Xilinx, we envision that this computing cluster will play a central role in cultivating exciting new research, educational initiatives, and collaborations in NUS, Singapore, and beyond.”

Researchers who would like to participate in the XACC program are invited to contact the Xilinx University Program (XUP) to learn more and apply for access to the XACC hardware. See www.xilinx.com/university for more details.
