In this paper we will demonstrate that dynamically reconfigurable computing is the key technology to enable small and energy-efficient hardware platforms for wireless communication systems, which provide the flexibility needed for keeping up with evolving standards and protocols. Two application-specific dynamically reconfigurable systems for WLANs and wireless sensor networks will be presented. The first architecture clearly shows that highly dynamic reconfiguration approaches can provide flexible and high-performance hardware platforms that are smaller than standard ASIC solutions. The second architecture serves as a case study for the design of energy-efficient dynamically reconfigurable computing systems.

Several classes of modern applications demand very high performance from systems with minimal resources. These applications must also be flexible to operate in a rapidly changing environment. Achieving high performance from limited resources demands application-specific architectures, while flexibility requires architectural adaptation capabilities. Reconfigurable computing devices promise to meet both needs. While these devices are currently available, the issue of how to design these systems is unresolved. This paper describes an environment for design capture, analysis and synthesis of dynamically adaptive computing applications. The representation methodology is captured in a Domain-Specific, Model-Integrated Computing framework. Formal analysis tools are integrated into the design flow to analyze the design space to produce a constrained set of solutions. HW/SW Co-simulations verify the function of the system prior to implementation. Finally, a set of hardware and software subsystems are synthesized to implement the multi-modal, dynamically adaptive application. The application executes under a runtime environment, which supports common execution semantics across software and hardware. An application example is presented.
