Comparison of Preemption Schemes for Partially Reconfigurable FPGAs PROJECT TITLE :Comparison of Preemption Schemes for Partially Reconfigurable FPGAsABSTRACT :Preemption techniques for hardware (HW) tasks are studied in order to boost system responsiveness at the task level and improve utilization of the FPGA space. This letter presents a fair comparison of existing state-of-the-art preemption approaches from the point of view of their capabilities and limitations plus impact on static and dynamic properties of the task. In comparison, we use a collection of cryptographic, image, and audio processing HW tasks and perform tests on a standard platform based mostly on a Virtex-four FPGA from Xilinx. Furthermore, we tend to propose the preemption as a methodology that will effectively increase FPGA utilization in case of HW tasks used as CPU accelerators in systems with memory protection and virtualization.
