Within the Cutting edge Reconfigurable ICs for Stream Processing (CRISP) project, a scalable and dependable reconfigurable many-core system concept has recently been developed. This concept is demonstrated with a hardware verification board that conveys two kinds of chips; the Reconfigurable Fabric Device is used for signal processing, while the General Purpose Device controls the platform. The NoC adapter interface allows for an efficient and convenient programming of the 45 XENTIUM DSP cores. A resource manager abstracts away from the specific locations of the resources, while guaranteeing temporal isolation between processes and dependability information of the various hardware components. This demonstration shows novel concepts integrated in a digital beamforming application and a Global Navigation Satellite System receiver.

Project Funding ID: 
FP7-ICT-215881
Project Description: 
The CRISP project is a EU co-funded project, in which a single highly scalable reconfigurable system concept is developed that can be used for a wide range of streaming applications; from low-cost consumer applications to very demanding specialty applications. The project is performed by an adept consortium consisting of Recore Systems, University of Twente, Atmel Germany, Thales Netherlands, Tampere University of Technology and NXP Semiconductors. CRISP is acronym for Cutting edge Reconfigurable IC's for Stream Processing. Partner Count: 6
