BFAST White Paper
In this white paper we present an FPGA-based accelerated solution for short read mapping. Short read alignment software, such as BFAST (Blat-like Fast Accurate Search Tool), is one of the key tools in bioinformatics research. However, typical runtimes are measured in hours or even days. Our implementation replaces a cluster of 260 quad core Intel Xeon processors with 8 commodity FPGAs.

Life Sciences White Paper
In this white paper we present an FPGA-based accelerated solution for DNA sequencing and dot plotting. We describe how multiple FPGA devices can be deployed to create a scalable cluster dedicated to the task of analyzing large amounts of data, and how this clustered hardware application can be connected to a software application for visualization and analysis.

Data Security White Paper
In this white paper we present a high performance, low power and scalable approach to password recovery. We describe the use of a cluster of field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) and compare the FPGA-based approach to more traditional, software-oriented methods. We demonstrate that a cluster of 77 commodity FPGAs, contained in a single 4U chassis and consuming less than 900W of power, provides the computational equivalent of over 1,000 dual-core processors.
