Dynamically reconfigurable networking using a programmable integrated circuit

Abstract:

A device includes a platform implemented, at least in part, in a static region of programmable circuitry and a dynamic region of programmable circuitry configured to implement user-specified circuitry in communication with the platform. The platform is configured to establish and maintain a first communication link with a host data processing system and a second communication link with a network while at least a portion of the dynamic region of programmable circuitry is dynamically reconfigured.
