DRC Computer Corporation have recently introduced a Dynamically Reconfigurable Coprocessor module which can be plugged directly into a CPU slot.

The unit can be inserted into any open socket in a multi-processor Opteron system and close coupling between the CPU and memory means that bandwidth and latencey bottlenecks are virtually eliminated.

CPU intensive Software sub-routines can be off-loaded to the DRC co-processing module which may enable applications to run many times faster.

Possible applications include: modelling, simulation, rendering, synthesis, searching/sequencing, cryptography, compression etc. in the fields of geoscience, pharma, defense, engineering, manufacturing, aerospace, government finance and entertainment.
