Abstract:
Dynamically reconfigurable computing platforms provide promising methods for dynamic management of hardware resources, power, and performance. Yet, progress in dynamically reconfigurable computing is fundamentally limited by the reconfiguration time overhead. Prior research in the development of dynamic partial reconfiguration (DPR) controllers has been limited by its use of the Processor Local Bus (PLB). As a result, the bus was unavailable during DPR. This resulted in significant time overhead. To minimize the overhead, we introduce the use of a multiport memory controller (MPMC) that frees the PLB during the reconfiguration process. The processor is thus allowed to switch to other tasks during the reconfiguration operation. This effectively limits the reconfiguration overhead. An interrupt is used to inform the processor when the operation is complete. Therefore, the system can multitask during the reconfiguration operation. Furthermore, to maximize performance, we introduce the use of overclocking with active feedback. During overclocking, the use of active feedback is used to ensure that the device voltage and temperature are within nominal operating conditions. All of these contributions lead to significant performance improvements over current partial reconfiguration subsystems. The portability of the system, demonstrated on the Virtex-4 and the Virtex-5, consists of four different hardware platforms.

Abstract:
With the advent of run-time partial reconfiguration, the most recent reconfigurable devices support reconfiguring hardware tasks individually, without interrupting the remaining tasks running on the same device. While the concept of run-time partial reconfiguration increases performance and resource utilization, it also leads to resource wastage, high configuration overhead and complex allocation situations of hardware tasks on reconfigurable devices. Many on-line and off-line methods for hardware task placement have been proposed for such reconfigurable devices to enhance placement quality expressed by fragmentation rate, the amount of task rejection and a few of them also estimate configuration overhead. However, these works treat each criterion individually and therefore do not reflect the overall metrics of placement quality. Hardware task placement is a multi-objective combinatory optimization problem. In this paper, we investigate the problem of off-line placement of hardware tasks in partially reconfigurable devices and we present a new three-level resource management that is based on two methods, i.e., a complete analytic method: the formulation into mixed integer programming, and an approximate iterative method: the Bees algorithm. For both methods, the placement quality is measured by the rate of resource efficiency and by the amount of configuration overhead. Experiments demonstrate that the analytic method provides better resource efficiency than the Bees Algorithm by 33% and attains 15% of gain in configuration overhead.

Abstract:
Swapping just small fractions of the configuration of an FPGA can be very beneficial in many applications. This is in particular useful for reconfiguring the instruction set of embedded soft core processors. In this paper, we will sketch that present design techniques include a substantial overhead for integrating reconfigurable parts into the rest of the system. This overhead can cost more logic resources than the actual module implementations. For removing this overhead, we propose a novel technique to constrain the communication resources between the static system and the partial regions.We will demonstrate for a reconfigurable soft core processor that instructions can be integrated into the system without causing any additional logic overhead for the communication. In addition, we reveal how such systems can be easily implemented with our tool ReCoBus-Builder. Furthermore, we will analyze the overhead in terms of reconfiguration time and present a metric helping to take design decisions.

Abstract:
Coarse-grained reconfigurable architectures (CGRA) require many processing elements (PEs) and a configuration memory unit (configuration cache) for reconfiguration of its PE array. Although this structure is meant for high performance and flexibility, it consumes significant power. Specially, power consumption by configuration cache is explicit overhead compared to other types of IP cores. Reducing power in configuration cache is very crucial for CGRA to be more competitive and reliable processing core in embedded systems. In this paper, I propose a power-efficient configuration cache structure based on two design schemes — one is a reusable context pipelining (RCP) architecture to reduce power-overhead caused by reconfiguration and another is a dynamic context management strategy for power saving in configuration cache. This power-efficient approach works without degrading the performance and flexibility of CGRA. Experimental results show that the proposed approach saves 56.50%/86.84% of the average power in write/read-operation of configuration cache compared to the previous design.

Abstract:
The strict requirements on both performance and flexibility lead us to apply Dynamic Partial Reconfiguration (DPR) technology in embedded systems. However, existing DPR design flows are still immature, since previous works mainly focus on hardware designs while ignore software designs for DPR. To remedy this weakness, this paper proposes a hardware/software (HW/SW) co-design flow for DPR. The co-design flow aims at accelerating the process of DPR designs, and it merges software and hardware design flows to make them operate in parallel. Besides, in order to validate the effectiveness of our co-design flow, we implement a partial self-reconfigurable prototype system on Xilinx Virtex-5 platform and perform a set of experiments. Experimental results present that the reconfiguration overhead for partial reconfiguration is only 4.66% against global reconfiguration in our prototype. It’s also presented that our prototype can achieve a 23.6 × speedup over software algorithm solutions.

Abstract:
Dynamic reconfiguration is possible on both fine-grain and coarse-grain architectures. One of the used methodology used consists in the use of multi-context architectures. Unfortunately, the multiple contexts bring power and area overhead. This paper introduces the Dynamic Unifier and reConfigurable blocK (DUCK) concept, a new structure to perform efficiently dynamic reconfiguration on both custom designed fine-grain and coarse grain architectures. The DUCK allows to separate the configuration path and the configuration registers which facilitates simultaneous configuration and computing steps. The reconfiguration process is presented in detail, and synthesis results are given for different structures. Our solution is finally validated with the implementation of a WCDMA (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access) receiver on a multi-context embedded FPGA and on the dynamically reconfigurable processor DART. This implementation demonstrates the interest and the efficiency of the use of dynamic reconfiguration and the proposed flexible structure.

In run-time reconfigurable system, the whole partial reconfigurable hardware is viewed as a reconfiguration and execution unit traditionally. Therefore, execution cannot start until the finish reconfiguration of the whole partial reconfigurable hardware. We virtually divide the partial reconfigurable hardware into several equal-size blocks. The reconfiguration and execution unit is smaller. This can make reconfiguration of one block overlap with execution of other blocks. And this can hide some reconfiguration overhead. Doing so will bring a new problem which is partitions-to-blocks scheduling. We design a two phases scheduler. Phase I will generate one highest priority partition from un-scheduled partitions. There are three considerations of the partition’s priority. One is the partition is on current critical path or not. Another is the number of outgoing edges and released partitions of the partition. The other is the execution time of the partition. We have two partition selection policies including of critical first and utilization first. Phase II will assign one block to the highest priority partition generated from Phase I. If the partition is the latest partition, we will assign one block to the partition so that the partition can finish execution earliest. If the partition is not the latest partition, we will look ahead one next future partition into consideration together. Choose one block to the primary partition so that these two partitions can release maximal resource with time. The result shows that utilization first is better than critical first. And view a part of the whole partial reconfigurable hardware as a reconfiguration and execution unit can improve completion time of run-time reconfigurable system.

Abstract:
With the increase in System-on-Chip (SoC) complexity and CMOS technology capabilities, the SoC design community has recently observed a convergence of a number of critical trends, all of them aimed at addressing the design gap: the advent of heterogeneous multicore SoCs and Networks-on-Chip and the recognition of the need for design reuse through Intellectual Property (IP) cores, for dynamic reconfigurability and for high abstraction-level design. In this chapter, we present a solution for High-level Programming of Dynamically Reconfigurable NoC-based Heterogeneous Multicore SoCs. Our solution, the Gannet framework, allows IP core-based Heterogeneous Multicore SoCs to be programmed using a high-level language whilst preserving the full potential for parallelism and dynamic reconfigurability inherent in such a system. The required hardware infrastructure is small and low-latency, thus adding full dynamic reconfiguration capabilities with a small overhead both in area and performance.

Abstract:
With the progress of technology, more and more intellectual properties (IPs) can be integrated into one single chip. The performance bottleneck has shifted from the computation in individual IPs to the communication among IPs. A Network-on-Chip (NoC) was proposed to provide high scalability and parallel communication. An ASIC-implemented NoC lacks flexibility and has a high non-recurring engineering (NRE) cost. As an alternative, we can implement an NoC in a Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA). In addition, FPGA devices can support dynamic partial reconfiguration such that the hardware circuits can be configured into an FPGA at run time when necessary, without interfering hardware circuits that are already running. Such an FPGA-based NoC, namely reconfigurable NoC (RNoC), is more flexible and the NRE cost of FPGA-based NoC is also much lower than that of an ASIC-based NoC. Because of dynamic partial reconfiguration, there are several issues in the RNoC design. We focus on how communication between hardware and software can be made efficient for RNoC. We implement three communication architectures for RNoC namely single output FIFO-based architecture, multiple output FIFO-based architecture, and shared memory-based architecture. The average communication memory overhead is less on the single output FIFO-based architecture and the shared memory-based architecture than on the multiple output FIFO-based architecture when the lifetime interval is smaller than 0.5. In the performance analysis, some real applications are applied. Real application examples show that performance of the multiple output FIFO-based architecture is more efficient by as much as 1.789 times than the performance of the single output FIFO-based architecture. The performance of the shared memory-based architecture is more efficient by as much as 1.748 times than the performance of the single output FIFO-based architecture.
