Self-Reconfigurable Embedded Systems on Low-Cost FPGAs
Iván González, Estanislao Aguayo, Sergio López-Buedo · IEEE Micro · 2007
Hardware acceleration significantly increases the performance of embedded systems built on programmable logic. allowing an fpga-based mlcroblaze processor to self-select the coprocessors it uses can help reduce area requirements and increase a system's versatility. with a simple hardware arrangement, requiring only a few external connections and no additional components, low-cost FPGAs such as Xilinx's spartan-3 can become self-reconfigurable platforms.
