A new project to address run-time reconfigurable hardware systems

Authors: Jim Torresen and Dirk Koch

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

Abstract

Last autumn, we started a new project named Context Switching Reconfigurable Hardware for Communication Systems (COSRECOS). In this talk, I would like to present how we plan to address the challenge of changing hardware configurations while a system is in operation. The overall goal of the project is to contribute in making run-time reconfigurable systems more feasible in general. This includes introducing architectures for reducing reconfiguration time as well as undertaking tool development. Case studies by applications in network and communication systems will be a part of the project. Comments to the planned outline are much welcome.

Advances in Component-based System Design and Partial Run-time Reconfiguration

Authors: Dirk Koch

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

Abstract

With passing over the 1M LUT barrier, FPGA technology is heading into new challenges and opportunities. While the present ASIC-like design methodology and tools will struggle to scale with such huge devices, providing partial run-time reconfiguration will be become obligatory for dealing with long configuration times and the increasing vulnerability to single event upsets. Within the COSRECOS project, we address these issues by developing methods and tools that allow to compose systems rapidly by plugging together fully physically implemented components. Moreover, by allowing a hot-swapping of such components, the tremendous advantages of partial run-time reconfiguration can be utilized. This talk will give an overview of recent trends, our present research activities, and will discuss open issues.
