Short Abstract:
Reconfigurable hardware enables to develop digital circuits and configure a FPGA device. The hardware itself is “reconfigurable” which means, that the circuit can be adapted, if for example a change is needed caused by a modification of the specification of a system. Modern architectures allow to modify the configuration of the chip even during run-time. This so called dynamic and partial reconfiguration opens several opportunities for run-time adaptive system. The course introduces reconfigurable hardware architectures and shows how to develop systems which have the capability to be run-time adaptive. Several applications will show the benefit of this methodology.
