Abstract :
in this paper, we introduce an auto-adaptation method for reconfigurable system-on-chip (SoCs) architectures. The approach is based on joint dynamic frequency scaling and the partial and dynamic reconfiguration technique. The method aims the enhancement of the global auto-adaptability of SoCs in terms of energy, efficiency and scalability. The auto-adaptation method is described and tested with the decompression algorithm (IDWT) of JPEG2000 application targeting virtex-4 FPGAs of Xilinx.
