Diastolic arrays : throughput-driven reconfigurable computing
In this thesis, we propose a new reconfigurable computer substrate: diastolic arrays. Diastolic arrays are arrays of processing elements that communicate exclusively through First-In First-Out (FIFO) queues, and provide hardware support to guarantee bandwidth and buffer space for all data …

Scalable reconfigurable computing leveraging latency-insensitive channels
Traditionally, FPGAs have been confined to the limited role of small, low-volume ASIC replacements and as circuit emulators. However, continued Moore's law scaling has given FPGAs new life as accelerators for applications that map well to fine-grained parallel substrates. Examples of such …
