The block diagram they showed looks pretty sweet for DSP too.

One question: Why are there separate symbols for integration and summation? Whenever I implement integration in DSP circuitry, it's just a rolling sum (since these circuits are obviously operating on discrete signals).

I believe that represents the sigmoid function.

I don't think NeuFlow is being actively developed anymore as most of the team is now working on the 'nn_X' co-processor out of Purdue and the startup teradeep. Clement Farabet (of Madbits/Twitter fame) and Yann LeCun are listed as consultant on the teradeep website (www.teradeep.com).
