A new technical paper titled “Sustainable Hardware Specialization” was published by researchers at National University of Singapore and Ghent University.
“We explore sustainable hardware specialization through reconfigurable logic that has the potential to drastically reduce the environmental footprint compared to a sea of accelerators by amortizing its embodied footprint across multiple applications. We present an abstract analytical model that evaluates the sustainability implications of replacing dedicated accelerators with a reconfigurable accelerator,” states the paper.
