Software/Configware Implementation of Combinatorial Algorithms

This paper discusses an approach for solving combinatorial problems by combining software and dynamically reconfigurable hardware (configware). The suggested technique avoids instance-specific hardware compilation and, as a result, allows obtaining higher performance than currently available pure software approaches as well as instance-specific reconfigurable solutions. Moreover, the technique permits problems to be solved that exceed the resources of the available reconfigurable hardware. The architecture of dynamically reconfigurable hardware problem solver is modeled in software allowing to estimate different characteristics, such as the time of reconfiguration, performance, etc., and to speed up the overall design process.
