10281 Summary – Dynamically Reconfigurable Architectures

Authors: Peter M. Athanas, Jürgen Becker, Jürgen Teich, and Ingrid Verbauwhede

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 10281, Dynamically Reconfigurable Architectures (2010)


Abstract
Dynamic and partial reconfiguration of hardware architectures such as FPGAs and coarse grain processing arrays bring an additional level of flexibility in the design of electronic systems by exploiting the possibility of configuring functions on-demand during run-time. When compared to emerging software-programmable Multi-Processor System-on-a-Chip (MPSoC) solutions, they benefit a lot from lower cost, more dedication and fit to a certain problem class as well as power and area efficiency. This has led to many new ways of approaching existing research topics in the area of hardware design and optimization techniques. For example, the possibility of performing adaptation during run-time raises questions in the areas of dynamic control, real-time response, on-line power management and design complexity, since the reconfigurability increases the design space towards infinity.

06141 Executive Summary – Dynamically Reconfigurable Architectures

Authors: Jürgen Becker, Jürgen Teich, Gordon Brebner, and Peter M. Athanas

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6141, Dynamically Reconfigurable Architectures (2006)


Abstract
Dynamic and partial reconfiguration of hardware architectures such as FPGAs and XPPs brings an additional level of flexibility in the design of electronic systems by exploiting the possibility of configuring functions on-demand during run-time. This has led to many new ways of approaching existing research topics in the area of hardware design and optimization techniques. For example, the possibility of performing adaptation during run-time raises questions in the areas of dynamic control, real-time response, on-line power management and design complexity, since the reconfigurability increases the design space towards infinity. This Dagstuhl Seminar on Reconfigurable Architectures has aimed at raising a few of these topics e.g. on-line placement, pre-routing/on-line routing trade-off, power minimization etc., and also at presenting novel ideas on how to overcome the difficulties introduced in dynamic reconfigurable systems.

Physical 2D Morphware and Power Reduction Methods for Everyone

Authors: Jürgen Becker, Michael Hübner, and Katarina Paulsson

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6141, Dynamically Reconfigurable Architectures (2006)


Abstract
Dynamic and partial reconfiguration discovers more and more the focus in academic and industrial research. Modern systems in e.g. avionic and automotive applications exploit the parallelism of hardware in order to reduce power consumption and to increase performance. State of the art reconfigurable FPGA devices allows reconfiguring parts of their architecture while the other configured architecture stays undisturbed in operation. This dynamic and partial reconfiguration allows therefore adapting the architecture to the requirements of the application while run-time. The difference to the traditional term of software and its related sequential architecture is the possibility to change the paradigm of brining the data to the respective processing elements. Dynamic and partial reconfiguration enables to bring the processing elements to the data and is therefore a new paradigm. The shift from the traditional microprocessor approaches with sequential processing of data to parallel processing reconfigurable architectures forces to introduce new paradigms with the focus on computing in time and space.

QUKU: A Coarse Grained Paradigm for FPGAs

Authors: Sunil Shukla, Neil W. Bergmann, and Jürgen Becker

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6141, Dynamically Reconfigurable Architectures (2006)


Abstract
To fill the gap between increasing demand for reconfigurability and performance efficiency, CGRAs are seen to be an emerging platform. The advantage lies in quick dynamic reconfiguration and power efficiency. Despite having these advantages they have failed to show their mark. This paper describes the QUKU architecture, which uses a coarse-grained dynamically reconfigurable PE array (CGRA) overlaid on an FPGA. The low-speed reconfigurability of the FPGA is used to optimize the CGRA for different applications, whilst the high-speed CGRA reconfiguration is used within an application for operator re-use.
