Call For Papers (PDF version)
Reconfigurable computing and FPGA technology have become major subjects of research in computing and electrical engineering as they have been identified as powerful alternatives for creating highly efficient computing systems. Reconfigurable computing offers substantial performance improvements when compared against traditional processing architectures via custom design and reconfiguration capabilities. Reconfiguration is characterized by the ability of hardware architectures or devices to rapidly alter the functionalities of its components and the interconnection between them as needed. Existing theoretical models and algorithms combined with commercially available devices, such as FPGAs, make Reconfigurable Computing a very powerful computing paradigm.
Topics
ReConFig’08 covers a broad spectrum of topics covering from hardware architectures and devices to custom computers and high performance systems. Topics include, but not limited to:
• Models, methods, tools, and architectures for reconfigurable computing
