| 520 | 3 | |a Advancements in technology have driven the miniaturization of embedded systems, making them more cost-effective and energy-efficient for wireless applications. As a result, the number of connectable devices in Internet of Things (IoT) networks has increased significantly, creating the challenge of linking them effectively and economically. The space industry has long recognized this challenge and invested in satellite infrastructure for IoT networks, exploiting the potential of edge computing technologies. In this context, it is of critical importance to enhance the onboard computing capabilities of satellites and develop enabling technologies for their advancement. This is necessary to ensure that satellites are able to connect devices while reducing latency, bandwidth utilization, and development costs, and improving privacy and security measures. This paper presents the GPU@SAT DevKit: an ecosystem for testing a high-performance, general-purpose accelerator designed for FPGAs and suitable for edge computing tasks on satellites. This ecosystem provides a streamlined way to exploit GPGPU processing in space, enabling faster development times and more efficient resource use. Designed for FPGAs and tailored to edge computing tasks, the GPU@SAT accelerator mimics the parallel architecture of a GPU, allowing developers to leverage its capabilities while maintaining flexibility. Its compatibility with OpenCL simplifies the development process, enabling faster deployment of satellite-based applications. The DevKit was implemented and tested on a Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC evaluation board from Xilinx, integrating the GPU@SAT IP core with the system’s embedded processor. A client/server approach is used to run applications, allowing users to easily configure and execute kernels through a simple XML document. This intuitive interface provides end-users with the ability to run and evaluate kernel performance and functionality without dealing with the underlying complexities of the accelerator itself. By making the GPU@SAT IP core more accessible, the DevKit significantly reduces development time and lowers the barrier to entry for satellite-based edge computing solutions. The DevKit was also compared with other onboard processing solutions, demonstrating similar performance. | |
