Falcon addresses the world’s insatiable appetite for increased application performance by enabling a new level of customized computing. Falcon’s Merlin compiler software eliminates traditional gate level synthesis, bringing orders-of-magnitude performance and power efficiency improvements to big-data applications in data center environments in a fraction of the time and expense as traditional ASIC or FPGA flows. Falcon is leveraging UCLA CS research that took ~$10M of R&D grants and 4 years to develop.
