Abstract :
RENCO is a reconfigurable network computer based on a Motorola 68360 processor for the conventional part, and four Altera Flex 10K130 or 10K250 FPGAs for the reconfigurable part. Therefore, the user has at his/her disposal up to one million programmable logic gates for executing his/her applications in a custom-made processor. RENCO runs a real-time operating system and a Java virtual machine
