Dedication In memory of my father

Two optimal algorithmic schemes (GPRA and SPRA) for scheduling a chain of n coarse-grained tasks on a linear array of k recon gurable FPGAs are presented. Each scheme supports several realistic problem formulations and cost functions. GPRA, the more general of the two schemes, reduces the problem to computing a shortest path in a DAG and requires O(nk4) time and O(n4) storage; SPRA, the less ge...
