Abstract :
This paper addresses the physical hardware requirements necessary for a co-design hardware/software virtual machine to not only exist, but to also provide comparable performance with other implementation techniques for virtual machines. The discussion centers on requirements of the reconfigurable device and it´s peripheral connections to main memory and the general-purpose processor.
