High-Throughput Lossless Compression on CPU-FPGA Platforms

This research article presents a novel multi-way parallel and fully pipelined architecture for high-throughput lossless compression on Intel-Altera HARPv2 platforms. The proposed design overcomes bottlenecks in existing FPGA compression accelerators, achieving a peak throughput of 12.8 GB/s, which is 2.3 times better than current records. The study also explores optimizations to maintain compression ratio while enhancing performance per area efficiency, making it a significant advancement in big
