Heterogeneous system architecture (HSA) as MEB Service
HSA Benefits
Heterogeneous system architecture (HSA) is a cross-platform open architecture set that enables CPUs and graphics processors to be integrated on the same bus, with shared memory and tasks. The HSA structure can reduce communication latency between CPUs, GPUs, and other computing devices, making programming tasks more compatible. Advantech’s MEB team offers considerable benefits to develop unique infrastructure that can be leveraged for all medical equipment sectors.
HSA Demo Program
Advantech’s HSA demo program showcases multi-tasking and task integration between a Windows CPU and Linux GPU. This eliminates processing latency and optimizes video processing and streaming for medical imaging applications.
vFoRCE FPGA Integration
Advantech’s vFoRCE solution is a heterogeneous processing architecture built on the x86/RISC computing platform that supports modular configuration and programmable Xilinx FPGAs to deliver powerful real-time imaging with zero latency. The vFoRCE architecture not only reduces development and implementation time, but also supports flexible configuration according to specific application requirements.
