This paper presents a framework for rapid development of FPGA based custom processors based on floating-point calculation units. The framework consists of a fully parameterized floating-point library, an easy-to-use pipeline generator and an interface generator for memory and I/O-modules. The performance of this approach is shown for the implementation of an SPH-algorithm.
