We have just received two Xilinx Alveo U280 as a donation from the Xilinx University Program.

Many thanks to Xilinx for this generous donation!

These two cards, together with the Alveo U50 we bought earlier will be the foundation for the FPGA accelerated computing infrastructure we are designing within the Hardware Acceleration Lab.

Two most-advanced accelerator cards will allow to experiment with our Lattice QCD kernels in a multi-node environment, where the networking and efficient kernel-to-kernel communication over PCIe bus and QSFP+ will be key elements.
