Akcelerace kompresního algoritmu LZ4 v FPGA
This project describes the implementation of an LZ4 compression algorithm in a C/C++-like language, that can be used to generate VHDL programs for FPGA integrated circuits embedded in accelerated network interface controllers (NICs). Based on the algorithm specification, software versions of LZ4 compressor and decompressor are implemented, which are then transformed into a synthesizable language, that is then used to generate fully functional VHDL code for both components. Execution time and compression ratio of all implementations are then compared. The project also serves as a demonstration of usability and influence of high-level synthesis and high-level approach to design and implementation of hardware applications known from common programming languages.
