Space and Time Sharing of Reconfigurable Hardware for Accelerated Parallel Processing

High-Performance Reconfigurable Computers (HPRCs) are parallel machines consisting of FPGAs and microprocessors, with the FPGAs used as co-processors. The execution of parallel applications on such systems has mainly followed the Single-Program Multiple-Data (SPMD) model; however, overall system resources are often underutilized because of the asymmetric distribution of the reconfigurable (co-)processors relative to the (main)
