Abstract

This paper presents an approach for the integration of reconfigurable hardware and computer applications based on the concept of ubiquitous computing. The goal is to allow a network of reconfigurable hardware modules to be transparently accessible by client applications. The communication between them is done at the API level, and a Jini-based infrastructure is used to provide an interface for the client applications to find available reconfigurable hardware modules over the network. A DES-based cryptography system was implemented as a case study.
