z4800 – An Open Source Multi-Core Platform on FPGA
The Z4800 platform is an open-source (mostly GPLv2) project consisting of a synthesizable soft-core CPU plus supporting hardware and software. The included reference designs allow construction of a complete FPGA computer complemented by a full-featured operating system capable of running many real-world programs. This platform can be used for many purposes, particularly benchmark studies; the processor core can be modified and has an extendable performance counter system.
