Abstract

A hardware realization of the Simplex Method is represented. We customised the algorithm regarding numerical stability (arithmetics) and hardware proximity. The resulting hardware (VLSI custom chips, FPUs, RAM) of our accelerator is based on a parallel architecture with up to eight processing units.
