Source Code

The software and gateware for OpenCPI is hosted on GitHub. OpenCPI is licensed under LGPL version 3. You can find a copy of the license here.

Reference System

The OpenCPI team does most of their development on 64-bit, x86, pure switched PCIe-based workstations (Intel Gulftown and EVGA X58 motherboard). Each of the development workstations host a combination of high performance GPU and FPGA development boards.

We refer to these workstations as the OpenCPI Reference Platforms. These workstations provide an inexpensive way to experiment with a heterogeneous hardware environment mixing GPP, GPU, and FPGA processor technologies on a switched fabric.
