Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Semiconductor makers have a problem of how to reduce the production cost. Because of the increasing gates to implement and shortening production cycle, production cost is increasing. One of the way to solve this problem is to use of reconfigurable hardwares. Although reconfigurable hardwares seemed to be useful, they have some disadvantages. As a result, a system using software or ASIC costs lower than reconfigurable hardware in many cases. In this paper we propose an efficient architecture of reconfigurable hardware with low cost. The proposed architecture has the following features; It has high routability but wiring area is reduced, and number of processor elements can be increase easily. We mapped DCT circuit to proposed architecture and run. We also show some experimental results.
