The AMD Xilinx University Program provides support for academics using AMD tools and technologies for teaching and research. Find out more about available course material and other educational resources, live and virtual training, and our donation program where university staff can apply for software and AMD | Xilinx development boards designed for academia.
See below for details on the Heterogeneous Accelerated Compute Clusters (HACCs) which provides researchers with remote access to high end compute acceleration hardware.
Find out more about low-cost XUP academic boards that are designed for classroom teaching and research projects.
University staff are invited to apply for a donation of Xilinx software and IP licenses, and AMD | Xilinx hardware including FPGA, Zynq, Zynq Ultrascale+, RFSoC, Alveo and Versal accelerator boards.
The university program host free to attend training courses and tutorials on the latest AMD | Xilinx tools and technologies, with the source material also available for educators to re-use in their teaching.
Find out about AMD, XUP and partner events including conferences, seminars, workshops and student competitions.
Introducing the Heterogeneous Accelerated Compute Clusters
HACCs (formerly known as XACC, Xilinx Adaptive Compute Clusters) is a special initiative to support novel research in adaptive compute acceleration for high performance computing (HPC).
HACCs have been established at some of world’s most prestigious universities. HACCs are equipped with the latest AMD | Xilinx hardware and software technologies for adaptive compute acceleration research.
Researchers are invited to join the program to get remote access to AMD | Xilinx heterogeneous compute acceleration hardware.
See the video for a short summary of the AMD Xilinx university program and what it offers.
Visit the AMD AECG Research & Open Source Projects YouTube channel for videos on Open Source and related topics including research presentations, HACCs technical talks, university program training and tutorials, examples and demonstrations.
XUP will attend the 28th International European Conference on Parallel and Distributed Computing, hosted by University of Glasgow. Details to follow.
The 32nd edition of FPL will be hosted by Queen’s University Belfast, United Kingdom.
