  48. 48.  In 2019, researchers at Iowa State University and Xilinx Research Labs conducted an experiment to compare the energy efficiency of CPUs, GPUs, and FPGAs for image kernels (i.e., small matrices used to apply Photoshop-like effects, such as blurring, embossing, and sharpening). Their results showed that across a range of kernels—from simple to complex—GPUs and FPGAs were more energy-efficient than CPUs. Murad Qasaimeh, Kristof Denolf, Jack Lo, Kees A.
