Can FPGAs compete with GPUs?

In this video from the GPU Technology Conference, John Romein and Bram Veenboer from ASTRON in the Netherlands present: Can FPGAs compete with GPUs?
"We'll discuss how FPGAs are changing as a result of new technology such as the Open CL high-level programming language, hard floating-point units, and tight integration with CPU cores. Traditionally energy-efficient FPGAs were considered notoriously difficult to program and unsuitable for complex HPC applications. We'll compare the latest FPGAs to GPUs, examining the architecture, programming models, programming effort, performance, and energy efficiency by considering some real applications."

fight between programmability vs raw speed

Thanks you for this." Lesson learned" section is quite interesting summary. Chisel tool which is like a sort of higher level language written in Scala can help immensely

I don't think OpenCL would fit into FPGA as original mindset of OpenCL is sequential pipeline (which is fits well with GPU) whereas FPGA has concurrent & dynamic pipeline
