Abstract :
Some types of FPGA (field programmable gate array) can be partially reconfigured during run-time forming a partial reconfigurable system (PRS). The use of PRSs brings several advantages like cost and power consumption reduction but needs appropriate development tools. This paper describes the available tools, classifies them and compares the principal ones.
