How Many CPU Cores is an FPGA Worth? Lessons Learned from Accelerating String Sorting on a CPU-FPGA System

Paolo Ienne, Mikhail Asiatici, Damian Maiorano

String sorting is a fundamental kernel of string matching and database index construction; yet, it has not been studied as extensively as fixed-length keys sorting. Because processing variable-length keys in hardware is challenging, it is no surprise that ...
