Qsys Help for a Beginner - Reading from Memory and Connecting Data to Verilog Circuit

With a DE2i-150, I am trying to do fast matrix calculations between the Atom processor and the FPGA (for my own project/not for school work).

What I have right now is a modified DE2-i150_PCIE_Fundamental example design, where I can send user-defined data via a modified version of the corresponding VC++ code. I also have a custom implementation of Faddeev's algorithm (for pipelining matrix calculations) written in Verilog.

the question I have is how to I take the sent data, process it, and send it back to the Atom. Essentially, I am trying to read from the onchip memory, and I want to know how to directly connect the data to the inputs of my Verilog file.

The process I want to make looks as following:

Thanks a lot.

*it would also work if i could access the send data without storing in memory

*also, sorry if my problem is too trivial, if i am unclear or sound rude, and/or if the question is a re-post.

    use NIOS II in your QSYS design, write some firmware using NIOS II SBT, then load it onto your system. Let me know if these keyword helps.
