Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Fault-avoidance methods using dynamic partial reconfiguration on reconfigurable devices are proposed for avoiding the emergence of permanent errors caused by aging. Life-time enhancement achieved by these methods depends on an initial mapping, the number and spatial distribution of unused basic elements, and an algorithm of partial placement and routing. In this work, we perform fault-avoidance simulation using VPR of the standard placement tool, and evaluate the relationship between mappings and life-time enhancement. Experimental results show as the application scale becomes larger, a large number of avoided faults becomes required. We also reveal that keeping wire utilization below 35% is helpful to raise success ratio of partial reconfiguration.
