Abstract :
FPGAs have made it possible to build dynamically reprogrammable systems. This paper reviews the current state of FPGA technology, and discusses the two main classes of dynamically reprogrammable systems: logic emulators and reconfigurable computers. Current practice and future directions for each are explored
