Personally, I use a combination of Tensorflow and Appex frameworks. I find Theano simply lacking in features.

Because it is one of the best text editors ever created.

it's in the top two. ;)

Swift for web development? You might as well kill yourself.

Looks like a scam website to me.

But now who's having the last laugh, EH?

>How efficiently OpenCl used the FPGA ?

There will always be some inefficiencies introduced when comparing OpenCL to Verilog. Hopefully, this will decrease in the future versions of OpenCL. Notice that the development time decreased by over 80%...

Care to mention in what field you did your bachelors and masters? You got into FPGAs though CS or through EE? I'm always curious about FPGA engineers.

Heya, did my undegrads as EE, changed it halfway from a 4 year MENG course to a 3 year bachelors because I was bored of the power distribution related stuff. Went on to do a masters in Advanced Microelectronics Design. I had contact with FPGA's in both my undergrad and my masters. I selected my BENG thesis on an ARM M0 soft implementation on an FPGA that implemented an expanded instruction set with increased performance on the SHA-1 algorithm.

>Intel is buying Xilinx,

I'm going to need a citation for that. The rumor for quite some time has been that Intel was going to buy Altera to integrate some dynamic hardware programmability into their next iteration of Xeon Phi-like compute hardware.
