A Morphable Fpga Soft Processor Using Llvm Infrastructure Targeting Low-Power Application-Specific Embedded Systems, Ehsan Ali
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
The reconfigurable computing (RC) aims to combine the flexibility of General-Purpose Processor (GPP) with performance of Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC). There are several architectures proposed since RC's inception in 1960s, but all have failed to become mainstream. The main factor preventing RC to become common practice is its requirement for implementers of algorithms (programmers) to be familiar with hardware design. In RC, a hardened processor cooperates with a dynamic reconfigurable Hardware Accelerator (HA) which is implemented on Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). The HA implements crucial software kernel on hardware to increase performance and its design demands digital circuit expertise. …
