چکیده
Reconfigurable architectures find the middle ground between flexibility and efficiency by limiting their flexibility to a particular algorithm domain. A domain specific reconfigurable architecture is both efficient and flexible. Recore Systems provides semiconductor IP solutions for programmable systems-on-chip. The coarse-grained reconfigurable technology of Recore promises to solve the flexibility, performance, power consumption and cost requirements of semiconductor businesses.
