Online Data Reduction with Spiking Neural Networks: A Temporal-Coincidence Encoder and Distributed SNN for the ePIC dRICH Detector
Pierpaolo Perticaroli, Roberto Ammendola, Andrea Biagioni +10
The dual-radiator Ring Imaging Cherenkov (dRICH) detector of the ePIC experiment at the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) will read out 320,000 silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) chann…
APEIRON: composing smart TDAQ systems for high energy physics experiments
Roberto Ammendola, Andrea Biagioni, Carlotta Chiarini +12
We present APEIRON, a distributed heterogeneous processing framework comprising both hardware architecture and software stack for multi-FPGA systems. Targeting smart trigger and da…
Radiation tolerance tests on key components of the ePIC-dRICH readout card
S. Geminiani, B. R. Achari, N. Agrawal +60
The dual-radiator RICH (dRICH) detector of the ePIC experiment will employ over 300000 SiPM pixels as photosensors, organized into more than 1000 Photon Detection Units. Each PDU i…
GPU-based Real-time Triggering in the NA62 Experiment
R. Ammendola, A. Biagioni, P. Cretaro +17
Over the last few years the GPGPU (General-Purpose computing on Graphics Processing Units) paradigm represented a remarkable development in the world of computing. Computing for Hi…
NaNet: a Low-Latency, Real-Time, Multi-Standard Network Interface Card with GPUDirect Features
A. Lonardo, F. Ameli, R. Ammendola +14
While the GPGPU paradigm is widely recognized as an effective approach to high performance computing, its adoption in low-latency, real-time systems is still in its early stages. A…
NaNet:a low-latency NIC enabling GPU-based, real-time low level trigger systems
Roberto Ammendola, Andrea Biagioni, Riccardo Fantechi +13
We implemented the NaNet FPGA-based PCI2 Gen2 GbE/APElink NIC, featuring GPUDirect RDMA capabilities and UDP protocol management offloading. NaNet is able to receive a UDP input da…
NaNet: a flexible and configurable low-latency NIC for real-time trigger systems based on GPUs
R. Ammendola, A. Biagioni, O. Frezza +10
NaNet is an FPGA-based PCIe X8 Gen2 NIC supporting 1/10 GbE links and the custom 34 Gbps APElink channel. The design has GPUDirect RDMA capabilities and features a network stack pr…
High-speed data transfer with FPGAs and QSFP+ modules
R. Ammendola, A. Biagioni, G. Chiodi +11
We present test results and characterization of a data transmission system based on a last generation FPGA and a commercial QSFP+ (Quad Small Form Pluggable +) module. QSFP+ standa…
