Abstract

This chapter introduces the highly promising future role of Reconfigurable Computing (RC) and emphasizes, that it is a critical survival issue for computing-supported infrastructures worldwide and stresses the urgency of moving RC from niche to mainstream. It urges acceptance of the massive challenge of reinventing computing, away from its currently obsolete CPU-processor-centric Aristotelian CS world model, over to a twin-paradigm Copernican model including and interlacing both, software and configware. It gives a flavor of the fundamentals of RC and the massive impact on the efficiency of computing it promises. Furthermore the chapter outlines the educational barriers we have to surmount and the urgent need for major funding on a global scale to run a world-wide mass movement, of a dimension at least as far reaching as the Mead-&-Conway-style VLSI design revolution in the early 1980s. The scenarios are similar: around 1980 an urgently needed designer population has been missing. Now a properly qualified programmer population is not existing. But this time the scenario is much more complex and the problem is more difficult, requiring not only a twin-paradigm approach for programming heterogeneous systems including both: many-core processors and reconfigurable accelerators, but also to find a solution to the parallelism crisis also called the “Programming wall”. The presentation of recent R&D advances in RC, especially those ones funded by the EU, are also subject of all other chapters of this book.
