Fast Graph Vector Search via Hardware Acceleration and Delayed-Synchronization Traversal

Summary: Co-design of Falcon, an FPGA-based GVS accelerator with pipelined GVS operators and on-chip Bloom-filter state tracking, and Delayed-Synchronization Traversal (DST) that relaxes traversal order to maximize parallelism/utilization. Shows up to 4.3–19.5× lower latency and 8–26.9× higher energy efficiency vs CPU/GPU baselines. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
