IIP 1161022 University of Florida George IIP - 1161014 The George Washington University El-Ghazawi This proposal requests a five year renewal (phase II) of NSF funding for the University of Florida (UF) and the University of George Washington (GWU) sites for the Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (I/UCRC) for High-Performance Reconfigurable Computing (CHREC). CHREC is currently comprised of the University of Florida (UF) as the lead institution, the George Washington University, Brigham Young University (BYU), and Virginia Tech as research partners. These institutions were brought together to establish the CHREC I/UCRC to investigate, develop, and evaluate new concepts, methods, infrastructure, and tools in reconfigurable high-performance computing (HPC) and high-performance embedded computing (HPEC), from building-block devices to hardware and software infrastructure to applications and tools, and advance these technologies through research and education for the benefit of Center members, students, and the discipline at large. CHREC is ideally situated to explore key research challenges of specific interest and paramount importance to its membership. The proposed university sites possess the expertise, experience, base of high-quality students, cutting-edge facilities, and administrative commitment to support this endeavor, as well as a strong record of success. Areas of research thrust for the next phase of CHREC include: design automation and programming methods; algorithms and applications; device and core building blocks; and systems and services. CHREC will continue and expand its role as the first university/industry research center in this fast-growing and increasingly important field of computer engineering. Research results will lead to new concepts, technologies, insights, and tools in reconfigurable computing for HPC and HPEC, experience rapid technology transfer via the I/UCRC structure, and thereby enrich and expand the nation's lead in these vital industries. CHREC will continue to have a direct impact upon the success of this field as a whole by helping support a national R&D plan and serving as a catalyst that brings leading organizations together to define common goals, methods, and standards. The PIs will continue to integrate the research results into the university educational process with expanded programs at multiple levels in engineering, and state-of-the-art facilities will be leveraged. Activities will be structured to attract a diverse set of students and faculty, including underrepresented students via several minority recruitment programs. Broad dissemination of results will occur through scholarly journal and conference publications, the center web site, and press releases.

佛罗里达大学乔治华盛顿大学El-Ghazawi本提案要求为佛罗里达大学（UF）和乔治华盛顿大学（GWU）的高性能可重构计算（CHREC）产学研合作研究中心（I/UCRC）提供为期五年的续期（第二阶段）NSF资助。CHREC目前由佛罗里达大学（UF）作为牵头机构，乔治华盛顿大学、杨百翰大学（BYU）和弗吉尼亚理工大学作为研究伙伴。这些机构聚集在一起，建立了CHREC I/UCRC，以调查，开发和评估可重构高性能计算（HPC）和高性能嵌入式计算（HPEC）中的新概念，方法，基础设施和工具，从构建块设备到硬件和软件基础设施再到应用程序和工具，并通过研究和教育来推进这些技术，以造福中心成员，学生和整个学科。CHREC处于理想的位置，可以探索特定兴趣和对其成员至关重要的关键研究挑战。拟议中的大学拥有专业知识、经验、高素质的学生基础、先进的设施和行政承诺，以支持这一努力，以及良好的成功记录。CHREC下一阶段的研究重点包括：设计自动化和编程方法；算法及应用；设备和核心构建模块；以及系统和服务。CHREC将继续并扩大其作为在这个快速发展和日益重要的计算机工程领域的第一个大学/行业研究中心的作用。研究成果将为HPC和HPEC的可重构计算带来新的概念、技术、见解和工具，并通过I/UCRC结构实现快速技术转移，从而丰富和扩大国家在这些重要行业的领先地位。CHREC将继续对整个领域的成功产生直接影响，通过帮助支持国家研发计划，并作为催化剂将领先的组织聚集在一起定义共同的目标、方法和标准。pi将继续将研究成果整合到大学教育过程中，在工程的多个层面上扩大项目，并利用最先进的设施。活动的结构将吸引不同的学生和教师，包括通过几个少数民族招生项目代表性不足的学生。研究结果将通过学术期刊和会议出版物、中心网站和新闻稿广泛传播。
