Hi Craig,

Sorry for the wait. I manage to talk to Yan Meng and he mentioned the library has been validated on a system hosting an Intel® PAC D5005 (Intel® Stratix® 10 GX 2800), and Terasic DE-10 Agilex (Intel® Agilex™ F014) PCIe cards. HEXL-FPGA library is no longer being worked on thus only those 2 cards are validated.

Since D5005 is discontinued (though I think there are some stock left in the market) , other option is the Terasic DE10 Agilex

As for your question ASIC accelerator for homomorphic encryption availability , so far I did not manage to get any information on it. I will try to ask around further on this.

Do you mind me asking whether you're evaluating this from company standpoint(&name of company) or from learning/university research? Had some folks from our business unit asking whether is this request is coming from customer requiring HE support on FPGA cards

Thanks

Regards

Kian
