Preface

The first International Conference on Field-Programmable Logic and Applications (FPL) was held in 1991 at Oxford University. In the ensuing years, it has grown to become the largest conference covering the rapidly growing area of field-programmable logic. Many of the advances achieved in reconfigurable system architectures, applications, embedded processors, design automation methods and tools were first published in the proceedings of the FPL conference series. The objective of FPL is to bring together researchers and practitioners from both academia and industry around the world.
