Abstract Dynamically reconfigurable hardware allows for im- plementing systems that can be adapted at run-time ac- cording to the needs of the user. This paper presents an architecture that is composed of multiple FPGAs that are connected to an embedded processor. Thus, the ar- chitecture is referred to as a Multi-FPGA Clustered Ar- chitecture (MFCA). All FPGAs can be partially and dynamically reconfigured to integrate user-defined IP- Cores into the system at run-time. For the resource management,and communication management,we have implemented a Linux Operating System on the embed- ded processor that can be used to control the reconfigu- ration of the FPGAs by means of simple function calls. Furthermore, the Linux OS completely hides the physi- cal infrastructure of the MFCA from user applications, oering,a consistent interface to utilize partial recon- figuration. , |
