Algorithms for online synthesis

Organization : Christian Hochberger and Andreas Koch, TU Darmstadt (DE):

  • Low complexity algorithms for demand driven online synthesis

Reconfigurable Systems can change their characteristics at runtime. In order to truly exploit that feature, it will be necessary to synthesize configurations for the reconfigurable part also at runtime. This approach is sometimes called online-synthesis. Unfortunately, many tasks during synthesis have exponential runtime and are therefore not suitable for online-synthesis. Thus, one tries to trade result quality for algorithm runtime in these algorithms. Submissions are welcome that either present new approaches or that try to tweak existing algorithms for this purpose.
