FPGA
FPGA stands for Field Programmable Gate Array.
An FPGA is a collection of gates (or Logic elements) that can be freely configured at run time, bascially allowing the creation of a custom piece of hardware. The performance of algorithms implemented in an FPGA is much higher than the performance of the same algorithm in software, by a factor of approximately 10-100, assuming the same effort has been put into optimization.
