Design and validation of execution schemes for dynamically reconfigurable architectures

Abstract—Mapping applications onto reconfigurable archi-tectures can be done in many different ways. The features of the target architecture constrain the way an application can be mapped and executed significantly. Execution schemes are generated as an intermediate format in our approach to application mapping and constitute a useful level to compare features of different architectures. In this paper, we present execution schemes that take advantage of fast reconfiguration and results from mapping execution schemes to a commercial architecture. I
