چکیده

Modern high-performance embedded systems face many challenges. Systems must function in rapidly changing environments. Power/size constraints limit hardware size, while extreme performance requirements demand algorithmspecific architectures. Hardware architectures must structurally adapt to achieve high performance with changing algorithms. Reconfigurable computing devices offer the promise of architectures that change in response to the changing environment. The primary difficulty in this approach lies in system design. A model-integrated approach is used in the design capture and synthesis of these systems. The target systems are built on a heterogeneous computing platform including configurable hardware, ASIC and general-purpose processors and DSPs. This project is a DARPA Adaptive Computing Systems funded effort, involving close cooperation with US

A Robust Model for a Dynamic Cellular Manufacturing System with Production Planning

In this paper, a robust optimization approach is proposed to design a dynamic cellular manufacturing system (DCMS) under uncertainty of processing time of products. In addition, a mathematical model considering cell formation, inter-cell design and production planning under a dynamic environment (i.e., product mix and demand are changed in each period) is presented. Therefore, reconfiguration b...

Runtime Environment for Dynamically Reconfigurable Embedded Sy

A runtime environment has been developed to enable the seamless integration of different hardware and software implementation technologies (DSP’s, FPGA’s, ASIC’s). The runtime environment is responsible for the management of dynamic system reconfiguration, including software reconfiguration for the parallel DSP’s and hardware reconfiguration for the FPGA’s in the system. This paper describes th...

Open Framework for the Dynamic Reconfiguration of Component-Based Sotware

Permanent and uninterrupted functioning can be sometimes a requirement for some kinds of software systems. This is especially true in the case of complex and distributed systems where stopping and restarting the system constitute a tedious and costly task, also when the system must be highly available or when its execution environment changes frequently. The development complexity and cost cons...

ViRe: Virtual Reconfiguration Framework for Embedded Processing in Distributed Image Sensors

Image processing applications introduce new challenges to the design of sensor network systems via non-trivial in-network computation. As embedded processing becomes more complex, in-situ reconfiguration is seen as the key enabling technology to maintain and manage such systems. In dynamic event-driven heterogeneous sensor networks, reconfiguration also encompasses autonomous re-partitioning of...

Architectural support for dynamic reconfiguration of large scale distributed applications

In a distributed environment, it is inevitable that long running applications will require support for dynamic reconfiguration because, for example, machines may fail, services may be moved or withdrawn and user requirements may change. In such an environment it is essential that the structure of running applications can be modified to reflect such changes. A complication is that such long runn...
