Configurable Computer Design for Guidance and Control Algorithms

In this paper mappings of several different algorithms from the fields of operating systems and multimedia are discussed, together with the underlying system architecture. The system architecture is based on a board with four FPGA circuits. For the purpose of this research, a simulator of the system has been developed, and different interconnection networks, memory, and bus architectures have been tested. The results of the simulation, as well as analytical results, are presented.
