HLS, OpenCL, and RTL for AI Inference and Acceleration

FPGA Authority

Member

This advanced course develops the skills to design, optimize, and integrate custom AI inference accelerator kernels using Altera HLS Compiler Pro, the Altera FPGA SDK for OpenCL, and RTL/SystemVerilog on Altera FPGAs. Participants work at the lowest level of the acceleration stack: implementing Conv2D, GEMM, depth-wise separable convolution, multi-head attention, and activation function kernels from scratch; applying advanced HLS optimization techniques (pipelining, unrolling, dataflow, memory partitioning); designing systolic array architectures; implementing Transformer and attention mechanisms in hardware; and integrating all components into complete Platform Designer systems through AXI4 and AXI4-Stream interfaces.
