The Parallella-16 Desktop Computer is an FPGA-based dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 single-board computer with an Epiphany III 16-core coprocessor chip. This credit card sized 'supercomputer' consumes less than 5W of power. The Parallella is a low-cost platform designed for developing and implementing high-performance applications for which parallel processing is ideally suited. Parallella boards are designed so that interconnection forming large clusters is straightforward.
