Hello jeevan2,

From a quick glance on the article, it looks like by using the transcievers it's able to meet the Xeon processors requirements. I'm assuming this is a custom board with fpga and Xeon very close to each other. The protocol is an ip so it doesn't look to bad to use if they have a kit. It first would use the transceiver ip core to stabilize th connection and use the qpi ip core for comm.
