The phrase "a general purpose hardware" is not correct in written English.
It should be "general-purpose hardware" to accurately describe hardware that serves multiple functions.
Example: "The new computer system is built on general-purpose hardware, making it versatile for various applications."
Alternatives: "multi-purpose hardware" or "versatile hardware".
In order to transition such sensors from the laboratory to the field, a general-purpose hardware and software platform is required.
A general-purpose hardware and software platform can do the same thing for a lot less money.
QCPU makes it possible to implement universal quantum computation with a fixed, general purpose hardware.
For low-frequency radio astronomy, software correlation and beamforming on general purpose hardware is a viable alternative to custom designed hardware.
The Board acknowledged that the sale of general purpose hardware "is not itself an activity that is closely related to banking," but found that with the limitations the Board imposed it would be permissible as "incidental" to the provision of permissible data processing services, Citicorp Order, 68 Fed.Res.Bull.Bull
But the Board has adequately taken that limitation into account, by specifying, as described above, that the cost of the hardware (including both specialized and general purpose hardware) cannot exceed 30percentt of the cost of the package.
(iii) The hardware provided in connection therewith is offered only in conjunction with software designed and marketed for the processing and transmission of financial, banking, or economic data, and where the general purpose hardware does not constitute more than 30percentt of the cost of any packaged offering.
This is the case with certain teleoperated robot control systems, which can be effectively built on top of general purpose hardware and software execution platforms, instead of having to use costly and difficult-to-program real-time computers and operating systems.
The parallel processing system could be a part of the camera itself, or a FPGA processor or a general purpose processor with special hardware.
Experimental results show that the NIOS processor with the proposed architecture as an accelerator can achieve up to a speedup of 254 over its software counterpart running on a general purpose processor Pentium IV without hardware support.
