Summary

While fine-grain, reconfigurable devices have been availablefor years, they are mostly used in a fixed functionality, “asic-replacement”manner. To exploit opportunities for flexible and adaptable run-timeexploitation of fine grain reconfigurable resources (as implemented currentlyin dynamic, partial reconfiguration), better tool support is needed.The FASTER project aims to provide a methodology and a tool-chainthat will enable designers to efficiently implement a reconfigurable systemon a platform combining software and reconfigurable resources. Startingfrom a high-level application description and a target platform, our toolsanalyse the application, evaluate reconfiguration options, and implementthe designer choices on underlying vendor tools. In addition, FASTERaddresses micro-reconfiguration, verification, and the run-time managementof system resources. We use industrial applications to demonstratethe effectiveness of the proposed framework and identify new opportunitiesfor reconfigurable technologies.
