Summary of the dissertation
The aim of the dissertation was to introduce and investigate active power management techniques in FPGA architectures as part of the PARFAIT project. The solution approach presented uses fine-grained, partially dynamic reconfiguration to temporarily replace application logic with management logic at runtime.
This realizes a measurement of the current runtime delay in the corresponding logic elements, whereby the application is not affected. Based on the measurement results, the runtime delay is dynamically adjusted in order to reduce the static power dissipation.
The system was simulated with RFET and SOI technology, whereby a reduction of up to 36 times the static power dissipation was achieved.
