Communication concept for adaptive intelligent run-time systems supporting distributed reconfigurable embedded systems

Reconfigurable computing systems have already shown their abilities to accelerate embedded hardware/software systems. Since standard processor-based embedded applications have come to their limits we need new concepts for controlling and managing embedded, possibly distributed, reconfigurable hardware/software computing systems. Succeeding to previous papers which dealt with management aspects of run-time reconfigurable systems and related AI-approaches this contribution describes an approach and proof of concept of a transparent communication mechanism between the application layer and its possibly distributed and reconfigurable hardware/software sub-function modules.
