Plastic Cell Architecture: A Dynamically Reconfigurable Hardware-Based Computer
IPPS/SPDP Workshops(1999)
Abstract
This paper describes a dynamically reconfigurable hardware-based computer called the Plastic Cell Architecture (PCA). PCA
consists of dualstructured sea-of-cells that consist of a built-in part and a plastic part. The built-in part forms ‘cellular
automata’ while the plastic part looks like an SRAM-based FPGA. We detail the design flow especially how to implement logic
onto the processing element. The advantages of PCA, considering VLSI implementation and several application examples, are
also described.
