Runlength Compression Techniques for FPGA Configurations
The time it takes to reconfigure FPGAs can be a significant overhead for reconfigurable computing. In this paper we develop new compression algorithms for FPGA configurations that...

The Entropy of FPGA Reconfiguration
In line with Shannon's ideas, we define the entropy of FPGA reconfiguration to be the amount of information needed to configure a given circuit onto a given device. We propos...
