Abstract

DynwrQC figuration of fiend programmable gate amys (FPG4s) haury emerged as the next step in reconfigurable computing. Sa A Lockheed Martin Company, is developing the enabling technology to the dynamic reconfiguration. Sanders, working with Signal Systems Corporation, identified key elements to the successful utilization of context switching. Two time-domain beamforming and optical flow, am described in an attempt to reveal some of the inherent computational enhancements afforded by context switching Conclusions are drawn as a result of this work and future work is described.
