The definitive version was published in ACM Transactions on Embedded Computing Systems (TECS), {VOL 13, ISS 4, November 2014} http://doi.acm.org/10.1145/2560037This article presents a methodology to build real-time reconfigurable systems that ensure that all the temporal constraints of a set of applications are met, while optimizing the utilization of the available reconfigurable resources. Starting from a static platform that meets all the real-time deadlines, our approach takes advantage of run-time reconfiguration in order to reduce the area needed while guaranteeing that all the deadlines are still met. This goal is achieved by identifying which tasks must be always ready for execution in order to meet the deadlines, and by means of a methodology that also allows reducing the area requirements.spajournal articlehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1145/2560037open access004.312Reconfigurable architecturesFPGAsreal-time task schedulingembedded systems designHardware
