FPGA data centers streaming applications accelerators big data cloud computing

Abstract With increasing connectivity and reliance on machine intelligence to process ever-growing amounts of data, the question of how to arrange the required connectivity and computation arises. Traditional cloud computing approaches that centralize compute capability in a data center do not scale well to large scale distributed data sources that must then transmit data over constrained networks. Similarly, computing at the very edge of the network is often constrained by limited computational capacity and a lack of access to shared data. In-network computing has been proposed as a way of
