چکیده

Reconfigurable computing is the application of adaptable fabrics to solve computational problems, often taking advantage of the flexibility available to produce problem-specific architectures that achieve high performance because of customization. Reconfigurable computing has been successfully applied to fields as diverse as digital signal processing, cryptography, bioinformatics, logic emulation, CAD tool acceleration, scientific computing, and rapid prototyping. Although Estrin-first proposed the idea of a reconfigurable system in the form of a fixed plus variable structure computer in 1960 [1] it has only been in recent years that reconfigurable fabrics, in the form of field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), have reached sufficient density to make them a compelling implementation platform for high performance applications and embedded systems. In this article, intended for the non-specialist, we describe some of the basic concepts, tools and architectures associated with reconfigurable computing.
