They provide an algorithmic description, the inputs, the outputs, an acceptance test to determine whether an implementation satisfies the specification,the timing that needs to be tabulated, the information that needs to be reported, and any notes regarding the benchmark, such as implementation hints. It is based on a four step image compression algorithm and can be used to measure reconfiguration overhead. This benchmark evaluates the ability of a configurable computing infrastructure to implement a large amount of logic efficiently,assessing usable capacity. It is based on a Huffman coding algorithm. This benchmark evaluates the ability of a configurable computing infrastructure to implement an application on a multi-device platform.
Scalability is measured in terms of both the number of processing elements and the data size.
It is based on a Fast Fourier Transform. It is based on Boolean satisfiability. We invite all ACS researchers to contact us with configurable computing benchmarks relevant to the ACS community at large to be considered for posting on this web site.
