Field-Programmable Systems and Applications Research

Field-Programmable Systems are multi-FPGA systems with memory that are typically connected by some form of programmable inter-chip connection mechanism. These are used either as "large FPGAs" to prototype or build larger systems. Our effort at Toronto has been in building and using a series of such systems, collectively known as the Transmogrifiers. More recently, we have been using the Altera/Terasic developed systems.
