+Introduction
+============
+
+Background Story
+----------------
+
+OpenStack Acceleration Discussion Started from Telco Requirements:
+
+* High level requirements first drafted in the standard organization ETSI NFV ISG
+* High level requirements transformed into detailed requirements in OPNFV DPACC project.
+* New project called Nomad established to address the requirements.
+* BoF discussions back in OpenStack Austin Summit.
+
+Transition to Cyborg Project:
+
+* From a long period of conversation and discussion within the OpenStack community,
+we found that the initial goal of Nomad project to address acceleration management
+in Telco is too limited. From design summit session in Barcelona Summit, we have
+developers from Scientific WG help us understanding the need for acceleration management
+in HPC cloud, and we also had a lot of discussion on the Public Cloud support of
+accelerated instances.
+
+* We decide to formally establish a project that will work on the management framework
+for dedicated devices in OpenStack, and there comes the Cyborg Project.
+
+Definition Breakdown
+--------------------
+
+**General Management Framework:**
+* Resource Discovery
+* Life Cycle Management
+
+
+**Accelerators:**
+* Software: dpdk/spdk, pmem, ...
+* Hardware: FPGA, GPU, ARM SoC, NVMe SSD, CCIX based Caches, ...
