A new compression based approach for reconfiguration overhead reduction in virtex based RTR systems
The advantage of RTR systems usually comes with some costs. The required time to map some areas of a program to an FPGA is considerable and affects the performance of RTR systems. Several methods have been developed to speed up the configuration process in these systems. Configuration compression can reduce the total number of write operations to load a configuration and it has been proven to b...
متن کاملComputing kernels implemented with a wormhole RTR CCM
The Wormhole Run-Time Reconfiguration (RTR) computing paradigm is a method for creating high performance computational pipelines. The scalability, distributed control and data pow features of the paradigm allow it to fit neatly into the Configiirable Computing Machine (CCM) domain. To date, the field has been dominated by lurge bit-oriented devices whose jlexibility can lead to lowered silicon ...
متن کاملPartial Run-Time Reconfiguration Using JRTR
Much has been written about the design and performance advantages of partial Run-Time Reconfiguration (RTR) over the last decade. While the results have been promising, commercial support for partial RTR has lagged. Until the introduction of the Xilinx Virtex family of devices, no mainstream, commercial FPGA has provided support for this capability. In this paper we describe JRTR, a software pa...
متن کاملReconfigurable Processor Architectures Exploiting High Bandwidth Optical Channels
There is growing interest in studying the possibility of reconfigurable architectures as replacements for general purpose computing for certain application domains. Reconfigurable systems can take advantage of deep computational pipelines, perform concurrent execution and are inherently data flow in nature. Furthermore, these systems have the capability of ‘on the fly’ reconfiguration of all or...
متن کاملAnalysis of the XC6000 Architecture for Embedded System Design
Novel FPGA architectures combined with new implementation methods influence the widespread area of embedded system design. Current research results based on the Global Run Time Reconfiguration (RTR) method show improvements to the functional density of up to 500% incon-trast to the widely used Compile Time Reconfiguration (CTR) method. In addition, the RTR method applied to a partial reconfigur...
