Particle graphics on reconfigurable hardware
2008
ACM Transactions on Reconfigurable Technology and Systems
This article presents the design and implementation of a hardware particle graphics engine for accelerating real-time particle graphics simulations. ...
The FPGA particle engine processes million-particle systems at a rate from 47 to 112 million particles per second, which represents one to two orders of magnitude speedup over a 2.8 GHz CPU. ...
It must be easy to reconfigure the accelerator to change the effect. This is one reason why a programmable hardware accelerator like a GPU or FPGA is required and a custom chip is not suitable. ...
