What is Reconfigurable Computing?
Under the current social and economic situation, the increasing popularity of digitalization, informatization, and networking has caused earth-shaking changes in people's lives. More and more people rely on computers and Internet technology to complete various tasks such as work, entertainment, and study. However, due to the continuous update and iteration of technology, the traditional stand-alone architecture cannot quickly respond to the huge demand brought by the growing computing resources, coupled with the explosive growth of new digital technologies, this requires a new generation of computing architecture designers to fundamentally rebuild Computing platform architecture improves system processing capabilities, saves resource overhead, improves system operation stability, reduces costs, and guarantees user experience. This is "Re-architectured computing" in today's computer field.
Reconfigurable Computing is a cross-departmental collaborative innovation workshop, aiming to create a reliable, efficient and secure computing platform in the future, and fully utilize the potential of computing power. Its main purpose is to promote cooperation in scientific research, development, production, operation and service industries through the research and practice of key technologies, solutions, methods, theories and models of new computing architectures, and jointly build a robust, efficient and secure computing platform architecture , becoming the era of intelligent computing in the true sense.
Why do we need "reconfigurable computing"?
Reconfigurable computing is an important direction in the computer field, and its main purpose is to improve the performance, reliability, availability, scalability and cost efficiency of computing platforms. Therefore, this field involves many disciplines and scholars, including systems engineering, computer science, economics, biology, political science, law, psychology and other fields. Only when systems engineering, computer science, economics, and biology are comprehensively explored and reached a consensus at multiple levels, can products or services that meet the needs be finally produced. At the same time, we must also cooperate with technology companies and government departments to achieve sustainable development.
With the development of new computing technologies such as cloud computing, supercomputers, distributed computing, and mobile computing, more and more applications are deployed on the cloud. These computing platforms need to be highly fault-tolerant, elastic, scalable, and low-latency and other characteristics. at this
