The dynamic reconfiguration of the interconnection network is an advanced feature of some multicomputers to reduce the communication overhead. In this paper we present an algorithm for the dynamic reconfiguration of the network. Reconfiguration is limited, preserving the original topology. Long distance message passing is minimized by positioning communication partners close to each other. That...

This paper addresses reconfiguration of a Replicated State Machine (RSM) in an asynchronous system. It is well known that consensus cannot be solved in an asynchronous system. Therefore an RSM providing strong consistency, cannot guarantee progress in an asynchronous system. However, we show that reconfiguring the RSM is possible in a purely asynchronous system. This differs from all existing r...

An efficient conference service facilitates the implementation and run-time control of conference applications. Beside key features of a conference service like conference management, multipoint communication support, and application state synchronization, the reconfiguration of such environments is crucial for the scalability and availability of the service. The paper proposes a reconfiguratio...

Reconfigurable hardware is a potential technique, which improves the performance of the systems being implemented in it. In this paper, the implementation of an ECG system for detection of abnormalities in real time has been considered using the Partial Reconfiguration technique. The implementation has been done in the Virtex-5 FPGA hardware using Verilog HDL. The performance of the implemented...

The feasibility of run-time reconfiguration of FPGAs has been established by a large number of case studies. However, these systems have typically involved an ad hoc combination of hardware and software. The software that manages the dynamic reconfiguration is typically specialised to one application and one hardware configuration. We present three different applications of dynamic reconfigurat...

---------------------------------------------------------------------***--------------------------------------------------------------------Abstract This paper proposes the computationally efficient, low power, high speed partial reconfigurable 9-tap FIR filter design using multiple constant multiplication technique. To reduce reconfiguration time dynamic partial reconfiguration is introduced. ...

Software systems are increasingly built to exhibit self-* properties (e.g. self healing or self optimization) which require reconfiguration and change at runtime. This is even true for embedded or mechatronic systems which are often used in safety critical environments. In those cases, the effects of the reconfiguration on the safety of the system must be carefully analyzed. We present an appro...

In this paper, the notion of aspect-oriented modular reconfigurable computing (AOMRC) is introduced, CSP-based behaviors of AOMRC are approached by developing a model of AOMRC and constructing a Hoare model of deterministic reconfiguration processes. Then, under the theory of coalgebras, we build a homomorphism between AOMRC and a Hoare model of deterministic reconfiguration processes. In other...

Abstract Driven by shorter innovation and product life cycles as well economic volatility, the demand for reconfiguration of production systems is increasing. Thus, a systematic literature review on management in manufacturing conducted within this work order to determine which degree addressed literature. To approach this, definition provided key aspects reconfigurable shortcomings today’s are...
