An FPGA based coprocessor for large matrix product implementation

Matrix multiplication is very important in many types of applications including image and signal processing. This paper presents an investigation into the design and implementation of matrix product algorithm using different design approaches such as Handel-C and VHDL, where the performance of both programming languages have been presented. Solutions for processing large matrix products based partitioning methodology have been described. The proposed system has been implemented and verified using the RC1000-PP Celoxica board based development platform.
