Framework for Adaptive Hardware Concurrent Systems with DPR-FPGAs
This project introduces new FPGA architectural tools and Linux OS modifications that aid in supporting Dynamic Partial Reconfiguration (DPR) on FPGAs for concurrent control. It shows that control systems benefit from hardware concurrency, meaning that by moving the control intelligence into hardware, the negative effects inherent to threads and their scheduler are minimized.
OpenVGA is an free and open FPGA-based implementation of a VGA compatible graphics adapter, and utilising low-cost hardware. The project includes the PCB schematic and artwork, Verilog HDL, firmware assembly code, and driver source code.
