# tops Hardware The **hardware** directory contains design notes, DPU scaffolding, and integration specs. It prepares tops for deployment on specialized hardware. ## Structure - DPU scaffolds → data processing unit designs - Integration specs → hardware/software interface - Future hardware notes → roadmap for physical deployment ## Purpose Hardware is the **body of tops**. It grounds orchestration in physical systems. ## Cross‑links - [cloud/azure](../cloud/azure/) → hybrid orchestration - [agents](../agents/) → agents may target hardware nodes
