Abstract

Reconfigurable computing systems typically consist of an array of configurable computing elements. The computational granularity of these elements ranges from simple gates to complete arithmetic logic units, with or without registers. A rich programmable interconnect completes the array.Performance evaluation of Simple-Assignment C, a high-level, algorithmic language for one-step compilation to host code and field-programmable-gate-array configuration codes, has just begun, with the authors porting the system to a more complex board that contains three FPGAs.
