Study and evaluation of FPGA reconfiguration during service operation for environment-adaptive software
Yoji Yamato · International Journal of Parallel Emergent and Distributed Systems · 2023
We have developed environment-adaptive software that enables high-performance operation by automatically converting application code in accordance with the deployed environment and setting appropriate amounts of resources. We only considered conversions and settings before the start of operation. In this paper, we verify that the logic is reconfigured in accordance with the usage characteristics during operation. We propose a FPGA reconfiguration method during operation and confirm that the application running on the FPGA is reconfigured into another application in accordance with the usage characteristics. Through confirmation, performance improvement and break time are checked, and the effectiveness of method is shown.
