Berkeley Emulation Engine 2

The BEE2 system is designed to be a modular, scalable FPGA-based computing platform with a software design methodology that targets a wide range of high-performance applications, such as:
  • Real-time radio telescope signal processing
  • Cognitive radio systems
  • Hyperspectral image processing
  • E & M antenna simulation
  • Bioinformatics sequence matching
  • Simulation of large-scale, ad-hoc and traditional networks
  • ECAD tool acceleration
  • Scientific computing
  • Computer architecture emulation
The modular system architecture can not only provide orders of magnitude reduction in overall cost and design time, but it also closely tracks the early adoption of state-of-the-art IC fabrication by FPGA vendors. Users of the BEE2 have the freedom to choose the appropriate number of computational modules needed to tackle the application at hand, and to rapidly reconfigure to switch to a different application.
