针对特定任务的动态可定制和可重新配置的硬件体系结构是在系统LSI时代带来新的计算范例的最重要的问题之一。我们的目标是实现一种灵活的处理器，它是一种动态可重构的现场可编程门阵列(FPGA)，能够在执行信号处理的同时读取下一个配置数据(CD)。为了实现灵活的处理器，由于传统的现场可编程门阵列中的光盘数量巨大，因此有必要尽可能地减少光盘的数量。在本文中，我们提出了一种新开发的可编程逻辑模块，它可以将CD的数量减少到不低于传统基于查找表(LUT)的可编程逻辑模块的86%。
Dynamically customizable and reconfigurable hardware architecture for a specific task on demand is one of the most important issues to bring out a novel-computing paradigm in the era of system LSIs. Our target is to realize a flexible processor which is a kind of dynamically reconfigurable field-programmable gate array (FPGA) and is able to execute signal processing while reading the next configuration data (CD) simultaneously. In order to realize the flexible processor, since the amount of CD is enormous in conventional FPGAs, it is necessary to reduce the amount of CD as much as possible. In this paper, we propose a newly developed programmable logic module that can reduce the amount of CD to no less than 86% of that for the conventional Look Up Table (LUT)-based programmable logic module.
