Goals of the network

The Hardware Acceleration Network NL is a platform to connect Dutch researchers and professionals focused on computer hardware acceleration, a relatively new field that is growing fast in importance both from a research as well as industrial perspective. Our goal is to bring together partners interested in hardware acceleration in the Netherlands and be able to exchange ideas, experiences, spark interest in the field, and define collaborations between universities and with the industry.
