چکیده

In this paper, we present the MorphoSys reconfigurable architecture, which combines a configurable array of processing elements with a RISC processor core. We provide a system-level model, describing the array architecture and the inter-connection network. We give several examples of applications that can be mapped to the MorphoSys architecture. We also show that MorphoSys achieves performance improvements of more than an order of magnitude as compared to other implementations and processors.

Design and Implementation of the MorphoSys Reconfigurable Computing Processor

In this paper, we describe the implementation of MorphoSys, a reconfigurable processing system targeted at data-parallel and computation-intensive applications. The MorphoSys architecture consists of a reconfigurable component (an array of reconfigurable cells) combined with a RISC control processor and a high bandwidth memory interface. We briefly discuss the system-level model, array architec...
