In this paper, we present the famous temporal partitioning algorithms that temporally partition a data flow graph on reconfigurable systems. We have classified these algorithms into four classes: 1) whole latency optimisation algorithms; 2) whole communication cost optimisation algorithms; 3) whole area optimisation algorithms; 4) whole latency-communication cost optimisation algorithms. These ...

Extracting appropriate custom instructions is an important phase for implementing an application on an extensible processor with a reconfigurable functional unit (RFU). Custom instructions (CIs) are usually extracted from critical portions of applications. It may not be possible to meet all of the RFU constraints when CIs are generated. This paper addresses the generation of mappable CIs on an ...

Extensible processors allow customization for an application by extending the core instruction set architecture. Extracting appropriate custom instructions is an important phase for implementing an application on an extensible processor with a reconfigurable functional unit. Custom instructions (CIs) usually are extracted from critical portions of applications. This paper presents approaches fo...

Variation in daily activity patterns facilitates temporal partitioning of habitat and resources among species. Knowledge of temporal niche partitioning in paleobiological systems has been limited by the difficulty of obtaining reliable information about activity patterns from fossils. On the basis of an analysis of scleral ring and orbit morphology in 33 archosaurs, including dinosaurs and pter...

In this paper, we discuss issues involving temporal data fragmentation, temporal query processing, and query optimization in multiprocessor database machines. We propose parallel processing strategies, which are based on partitioning of temporal relations on timestamp values, for multi-way joins (e.g., complex temporal pattern queries) and optimization alternatives. We analyze the proposed sche...

While sensory neurons carry behaviorally relevant information in responses that often extend over hundreds of milliseconds, the key units of neural information likely consist of much shorter and temporally precise spike patterns. The mechanisms and temporal reference frames by which sensory networks partition responses into these shorter units of information remain unknown. One hypothesis holds...

The temporal axis of niche (temporally based resource partitioning) is an understudied mechanism for resource partitioning in mammals even though it provides a potential means for species coexistence. Herein we evaluate species-specific use curves based upon capture times during the overlapping activity of bat species at two water holes in an arid environment where bats likely suffer high level...

Resource virtualization on FPGA devices, achievable due to its dynamic reconfiguration capabilities, provides an attractive solution to save silicon area. Architectural synthesis for dynamically reconfigurable FPGA-based digital systems needs to consider the case of reducing the number of temporal partitions (reconfigurations), by enabling sharing of some functional units in the same temporal p...
