Reconfigurable Computing: Architecture, Logic and Applications in Bloomington, MN

Reconfigurable computing is the computer architecture that combines the flexibility of software with high performing hardware by processing with high speed, flexible computing fabrics such as field-programming gate arrays (FPGAs). The central theories of reconfigurable computing are Tredennick’s Classification and Hartenstein’s Xputer. Modern reconfigurable computing systems include COPACOBANA, Intel, Xilinx, Mitrionics, etc. The classification of reconfigurable architectures is continuously being developed and redefined with the development of new architectures. The current classification is based on granularity, host coupling, rate of reconfiguration and routing interconnects. This book unravels the recent studies in the field of reconfigurable computing. Also included herein is a detailed explanation of the architecture, logic and applications of reconfigurable computing. This book, with its detailed analyses and data, will prove immensely beneficial to professionals and students involved in this area at various levels.
