Assuming there is a task (e.g. an image processing method with a lot math) which is reasonable to be implemented on FPGA in sense of answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/8695228/544463

Is there any known (that you can actually name) successful application or practice for combining it with “dedicated” (designed on custom demand) super computing cluster (HPC), e.g. with Infiniband stack? I wonder if that has already been done and to which extend that was successful.

My main motivation for the question is that http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reconfigurable_computing is a long term (academic) perspective for the future development of cluster computing as a distinctive alternative to cloud computing (the later concentrates more on the software (higher) flexibility level but also through possible “reconfiguration”). Is it already practical?

I would also expect somebody is doing research on this… It would be nice to learn about results.

    It’s being attempted academically with Novo-G.
