Hardware Acceleration of Algorithms for Approximate String Matching
Nosek, Ondřej ; Kořenek, Jan (referee) ; Martínek, Tomáš (advisor)
Methods for aproximate string matching of various sequences used in bioinformatics are crucial part of development in this branch. Tasks are of very large time complexity and therefore we want create a hardware platform for acceleration of these computations. Goal of this work is to design a generalized architecture based on FPGA technology, which can work with various types of sequences. Designed acceleration card will use especially dynamic algorithms like Needleman-Wunsch and Smith-Waterman.

Automatic Configuration of Utility Tools for FPGA Firmware
Perešíni, Martin ; Matoušek, Jiří (referee) ; Kučera, Jan (advisor)
This bachelor's thesis is about designing an automatic configuration of utility tools for FPGA firmware. The assignment is solved within CESNET research activity, which is devoted on the development of hardware-accelerated network interface cards based on FPGA technology. The aim of the thesis is to replace current inflexible system for describing the firmware structure used by NIC, HANIC and SDM projects. The system was based on a firmware description by XML file, which was created manually for each configuration. Based on negative aspects of system is created new design, which is using Device Tree. Device Tree is opening possibility to change NetCOPE build system for automatic generating firmware description. Description of hardware is distributed together with firmware. In the thesis, the design of the system was implemented and then verified by testing functionality on the ethctl tool. At the end of the work are mentioned possible system features and extensions for future.
