Abstract

The Berkeley eXtensible Environment (BXE) provides a cloud environment for hardware designers and computer architects to design, build, and simulate their custom architectures on an on-premises FPGA cluster. Utilizing the Chipyard, MoSAIC, and FireSim frameworks, users are provided an environment where they can assemble SoC designs from an existing library of components or import their own source code. Once their designs are ready, they can utilize the FireSim framework provided by BXE to deploy and simulate their designs on the FPGA. Users aren't limited to a single FPGA; they can deploy multiple instances across multiple FPGAs, acting like a rack of servers, or partition their large design across multiple FPGAs, ganging multiple FPGAs into a single simulated system.
