Improving functional density of time-critical applications using hardware-based dynamic reconfiguration and bitstream specialisation
(South African Institute of Computer Scientists and Information Technologists, 2019)The dynamic reconfiguration of an FPGA has many advantages, but the overhead from the process reduces the functional density of applications. Functional density is an indication of the composite benefits a reconfigured ... -
Parsing and analysis of a Xilinx FPGA bitstream for generating new hardware by direct bit manipulation in real-time
(South African Institute of Computer Scientists and Information Technologists, 2019)Despite the many advantages run-time reconfiguration of FPGAs brings to the table, its usage is mostly limited to quasi-static applications. This is either due to the throughput of the reconfiguration process, or the time ...
