Papers from a July 2002 workshop describe recent advances in reconfigurable computing, system specification and modeling, distributed prototyping, efficient early evaluation, and prototyping methodologies and tools. Coverage includes prototyping applications ranging from FPGA-based embedded hardware to interactive software systems and networked communication systems; case studies; and topics such as rapid prototyping of FPGA-based floating point DSP systems, prototyping Ethernet in the first mile over point-to-point copper, interfacing software libraries from non-deterministic prototypes, reconfigurable hardware control software, and platform concepts for prototyping and demonstration of high-speed communication systems. This work lacks a subject index. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR. |
