1. INTRODUCTION:
CGRAs consist of an array of a large number of
function units interconnected by a mesh style
network. Nowadays, stream-based applications, such
as
multimedia,
telecommunications,
signal
processing, and data encryptions, are the dominant
workloads in many electronic systems. The real-time
constraints of these applications, especially over
portable devices, often have stringent energy and
performance requirements The general purpose
solutions, such as general purpose processors (GPPs),
are widely used in conventional data-path oriented
applications due to their flexibility and ease of use.
The application-specific integrated circuits
(ASICs) become inevitably a customized solution to
meet these ever-increasing demands for highly
repetitive parallel computations. Reconfigurable
architectures (RAs) have long been proposed as a
way to achieve a balance between flexibility as of
GPP and performance as of ASICs The hardwarebased RA implementation is able to explore the
