Abstract :
To study the concept of Self Adaptive Networked computing Elements (SANE) we developed a configurable platform based on the Xilinx EDK and Xilinx System Generator tools. The platform is built around a MicroBlaze CPU with a set of standard peripherals such as DDR RAM controller and RS232 interface - denoted as "Master", extended with a set of several "reprogrammable Accelerators" connected to the MicroBlaze "Master" via fast simplex links (FSL).
