Hi everybody, 

 

I am a master's student, I study at University of São Paulo (USP) - Brazil. Here we have an Stratix V development kit. I would like to use OpenCL for a research project, but I read that I need the custom platform. Is there any place that I could get this custom platform? I don't have any experience with this, and since the project needs the co-design of hardware and software I can't spend much time creating such platform. On the Altera OpenCL website I found ®Stratix ®V Network Reference Platform (s5_net). Is there any easy way to modify it to work on our development kit? I hope I had been clear about my problem. 

 

 

Carlos.

Altera have an OpenCL custom platform toolkit - https://www.altera.com/en_us/pdfs/literature/hb/opencl-sdk/ug_aocl_custom_platform_toolkit.pdf 

 

It uses the s5_net BSP as a starting point and shows how to modify this. Alternatively you could go back to the board manufacturer and ask if they have a created a BSP for the board.
