Abstract :
Recently, a lot of reconfigurable systems (RSs) utilizing FPGAs have been reported. The aim is to achieve high performance with low production cost, or to produce non-“von Neumann” machines. In this paper, we overviews RSs. FPGAs, the key components of RSs, are introduced. Second, we categorize RSs into several types. Next, applications are described. Then, hot topics related to RSs are mentioned. Finally, some open problems are described
