One route to achieving better computer performance is to attach peripheral boards with reconfigurable hardware units. By configuring the chip appropriately, one can provide a complete System-on-Chip solution that is optimal for a given set of factors. (i.e. cost and time to market). To improve performance, the most CPU-intensive parts of the program can be compiled into a custom hardware solution for a programmable device. If communication overhead is kept under control, the result should be a speed improvement as well as a reduction in development time.

实现更好的计算机性能的一个途径是附加带有可重构硬件单元的外设板。通过适当地配置芯片，可以提供一个完整的片上系统解决方案，该解决方案对于给定的一组因素是最优的。（即成本和上市时间）。为了提高性能，可以将程序中cpu最密集的部分编译为可编程设备的定制硬件解决方案。如果通信开销得到控制，结果应该是速度的提高和开发时间的减少。
