| description | This paper presents the “reconfigurable computing” teaching part of a computer science master course (first year) on parallel architectures. The practical work sessions of this course
rely on active pedagogy using problem-based learning, focused
on designing a reconfigurable architecture for the implementation
of an application class of image processing algorithms.
We show how the successive steps of this project permit the
student to experiment with several fundamental concepts of
reconfigurable computing at different levels. Specific experiments
include exploitation of architectural parallelism, dataflow and
communicating component-based design, and configurability-specificity
tradeoffs. |
