PhD Student Builds Haskell Processor on FPGA

A PhD student presents Ouros, a specialized hardware processor running Haskell code directly on an FPGA board donated by AMD. The design runs at 100 MHz using 27% of LUTs and 40% of BRAM resources. While currently limited to polling-based IO and lacking floating-point support, the architecture demonstrates direct hardware execution of functional languages without a software runtime.
