Reconfigurable computing: architectures and design methods
نویسندگان
چکیده
Reconfigurable computing is becoming increasingly attractive for many applications. This survey covers two aspects of reconfigurable computing: architectures and design methods. The paper includes recent advances in reconfigurable architectures, such as the Alters Stratix II and Xilinx Virtex 4 FPGA devices. The authors identify major trends in general-purpose and specialpurpose design methods. It is shown that reconfigurable computing designs are capable of achieving up to 500 times speedup and 70% energy savings over microprocessor implementations for specific applications.

Optimizing FPGA architectures is one of the key challenges in digital design flow. Traditionally, FPGA designers make use of CAD tools for evaluating architectures in terms of the area, delay and power. Recently, analytical methods have been proposed to optimize the architectures faster and easier. A complete analytical power, area and delay model have received little attention to date. In addi...

متن کاملIP Design for Dynamically Reconfigurable SoCs
Reconfigurable computing is a relatively new paradigm. While there is a growing number of new reconfigurable architectures there is a lack of design tools to map applications onto these architectures. The design tools must exploit the benefits of reconfiguration in order to deploy such architectures successfully. In this paper we present some fundamental ideas on how to take advantage of reconf...
