The adaptivity of electronic systems to their environment and inner system status enables the processing of different applications in time slots on one reconfigurable hardware architecture. Adaptivity “On-Demand” related to non predictable requirements from the user or the environment means the optimization of power dissipation and performance at run-time by providing on-chip computation capacity. Traditional microprocessor based electronic systems are able to adapt the software to the required tasks of an application. The disadvantage in those system is the sequential processing of the software code and the fixed hardware architecture which doesn’t allow to adapt internal structures in order to optimize the data throughput. Reconfigurable hardware, in this section Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), allows adapting the hardware system architecture at design- and run-time as well as the integrated software within the included soft-core IP-Processing cores.
