Abstract :
This contribution describes the coarse-grain and dynamical reconfigurable eXtreme Processing Platform (XPP) architecture from PACT XPP Technologies AG (Munich, Germany) and its transport-triggered operation principles. Thus, PACT´s newest XPP device realizes an adaptive runtime reconfigurable data processing technology that replaces the concept of instruction sequencing by configuration sequencing with high performance application areas envisioned from embedded signal processing to co-processing in different DSP-like and mobile application environments, e.g. adaptive video systems.
