Abstract :
For 20 years, the International Symposium on Field-Programmable Custom Computing Machines (FCCM) has explored how FPGAs and FPGA-like architectures can bring unique capabilities to computational tasks. We survey the evolution of the field of reconfigurable computing as reflected in FCCM, providing a guide to the body-of-knowledge accumulated in architecture, compute models, tools, run-time reconfiguration, and applications.
