Abstract

A technique for rapidly generating configuration datastreams from high-level HDL-like constructs is introduced. This new technique allows a wide variety of client applications to send a fully placed netlist to a sever which routes the netlist and then generates a configuration datastream (either full or partial). The configuration datastream can then be used by the client to reconfigure hardware. This new technology provides an experimental infrastructure that can realize many existing abstractions for reconfigurable computing. This paper considers an implementation of configuration data graphs.
