TL;DR: In this article, the use of both Desktop and CompactPCI boards in a signal bus board without requiring complex bridging circuits is discussed, which allows additional boards to be used without extending the length of the PCI bus.
Abstract: A computer system includes a centerplane formed by a printed circuit board. The centerplane has a plurality of Desktop PCI electrical connectors on one side and a plurality of CompactPCI electrical connectors on the other. This allows the use of both Desktop and CompactPCI boards in a signal bus board, without requiring complex bridging circuits. In addition, this allows additional boards to be used without extending the length of the PCI bus.
TL;DR: It is shown that the implementation of linear filtering algorithms on FPGAs allows processing images up to 10 times faster than using GPU modules and even more CPU modules, and the maximum power consumption and the capacity of the VGVP with conductive cooling are estimated.
Abstract: The article contains materials on methods for designing protected high-performance heterogeneous computing platforms (VGVP) based on the modular architecture of the CompactPCI Serial standard. A review of the development of Intel’s x86 processor technology, a review of common video interfaces is given. The requirements for the projected heterogeneous hardware-computing platforms for solving video processing tasks are determined. Platforms that organize parallel processing of digital video images using GPU modules, FPGA modules and CPU modules are described. It is shown that the implementation of linear filtering algorithms on FPGAs allows processing images up to 10 times faster than using GPU modules and even more CPU modules. The maximum power consumption and the capacity of the VGVP with conductive cooling are estimated.
