论文摘要
加密货币采矿是一个能源密集型过程，它是硬件加速的主要候选者。此过程中的工作介绍了第一个用于ASIC耐药性工作证明（POW）算法的协处理器设计。我们将硬件加速器构建为XILINX运行时间（XRT）RTL内核，靶向Xilinx变化C1100区块链加速器卡。该设计采用了深层管道的计算和高带宽内存（HBM），用于基础的SCRATCHPAD数据。我们的目的是将我们的加速器与现有的CPU和GPU矿工进行比较，以显示其哈希计算的吞吐量和能源效率的提高
Cryptocurrency mining is an energy-intensive process that presents a prime candidate for hardware acceleration. This work-in-progress presents the first coprocessor design for the ASIC-resistant CryptoNight-Haven Proof of Work (PoW) algorithm. We construct our hardware accelerator as a Xilinx Run Time (XRT) RTL kernel targeting the Xilinx Varium C1100 Blockchain Accelerator Card. The design employs deeply pipelined computation and High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) for the underlying scratchpad data. We aim to compare our accelerator to existing CPU and GPU miners to show increased throughput and energy efficiency of its hash computations
