Reconfigurable computing platforms offer the promise of substantially accelerating
computations through the concurrent nature of hardware structures and the ability of these …

With the end of both Dennard's scaling and Moore's law, computer users and researchers
are aggressively exploring alternative forms of computing in order to continue the …

For a design to survive unforeseen physical effects like aging, temperature variation, and/or
emergence of new application standards, adaptability needs to be supported. Adaptability …

In this new edition of the Handbook of Signal Processing Systems, many of the chapters
from the previous editions have been updated, and several new chapters have been added …

Coarse-grained reconfigurable arrays (CGRAs), loosely defined as arrays of functional units
(eg, adder, subtractor, multiplier, divider, or larger multi-operation units, but smaller than a …

Mobile computing in the form of smart phones, netbooks, and personal digital assistants has
become an integral part of our everyday lives. Moving ahead to the next generation of …

Abstract Coarse-Grained Reconfigurable Array (CGRA) architectures accelerate the same
inner loops that benefit from the high instruction-level parallelism (ILP) support in very long …

Reconfigurable arrays combine the benefit of spatial execution, typical of hardware
solutions, with that of programmability, present in microprocessors. When mapping software …

Reconfigurable computational architectures are envisioned to deliver power efficient, high
performance, flexible platforms for embedded systems design. The coarse-grained …
