CS 445 - Reconfigurable Embedded Systems

Units: 3

Concepts, technologies, and programming languages used in modern digital embedded systems. Includes general-purpose computing, reconfigurable computing, and application-specific computing in digital system design. Technologies of reconfigurable computing systems such as Field Programmable Gate Arrays, design flow and implementation in reconfigurable systems, Hardware Description Languages, such as VHDL (Very high speed integrated circuits Hardware Description Language) programming, techniques to reconfigure systems over time including partitioning and placement, and on-chip communication solutions in dynamically reconfigurable systems. May not be taken for credit by students who have received credit for CS 497 -5.

Prerequisite(s): CS 331.
