Abstract

Janus is an FPGA-based computer optimized for the simulation of spin glasses or similar condensed matter systems. Computing requirements in this area are still not met by available commercial systems, so an application-driven machine, boosting performance by approximately a factor 100x is in this case the only viable option to simulate large systems for a time window comparable with experiments.
