2023<\/a> This is a semi-official, semi-serious, fully-enjoyable activity at FCCM, which has become a periodic tradition. It combines prediction of where the FCCM field is headed with a good bit of fun. Participants break into groups, and assemble a set of predictions for future FCCMs. All participants then vote on their favorites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Organized by Mike Butts<\/em> 11: Homogeneous FPGAs as we know them will no longer exist. FPGAs as we know them today will only show up as embedded components within complex, heterogeneous SOC devices. Organized by Mike Butts<\/em> The top 10 predictions in 2011 took a technical turn with an email based submission and an online voting poll. 56 different predictions were submitted by conference attendees and posted during the annual FCCM demo night. While enjoying drinks and demos, FCCM attendees pored over the list and heartily debated the merits of the various predictions. On the second day and after a deep pondering, FCCM attendees voted on the predictions to make a top ten list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A new feature of the top 10 is an award for the top prognosticator. The person that submitted the most top 10 predictions will be awarded the FCCM prognosticator award. For 2011, we had a tie for the FCCM prognosticator. Lesley Shannon and Andre DeHon both submitted two of the top 10 predictions and share the FCCM prognosticator award. More details about the FCCM 2011 top 10 can be found in the following presentation<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 10. Mike Butts will do another Top 10

<\/p>\n\n\n\n
10: FPGA-based machines begin colonization of Mars.
9: All large FPGA designs use NOC overlays or hardened NOCs.
8: Xilinx will be bought by another company (IBM? Google?).
7: Very few designers will use RTL-level tools – most designers of FPGAs will use high-level tools (C, C++, OpenCL) and\/or IP integration.
6: Most large FPGAs have in-package high bandwidth DRAM.
5: FPGAs components will be a standard element of most high-end microprocessor architectures.
4: FPGA design tools will still need improvements.
3: FPGAs will have hardware double-precision FPU DSPs.
2: A large fraction of datacenter nodes will include FPGA logic.
1: The Top500 supercomputer list will include an FPGA-accelerated machine

9. FPGAs will move to 3D by having stacked dies within one package
8. FPGAs will contain embedded GPUs
7. Dynamic Partial Reconfiguration will be accessible to the masses
6. Intel acquires an FPGA company
5. VHDL and Verilog will remain ubiquitous for circuit expression
4. Heterogeneous architectures will be in common practice and will be in market.
3. You can buy FPGA IP from an FPGA app store
2. Reconfigurable fabrics will be integrated onto Intel CPUs
1. A high-level, object oriented solution for FPGA design will be popular (it won’t be C to gates)
