Reconfigurable Computing Systems

Paper Review Topics:

Besides the assignments, each student(s) is assigned either an advanced topic or article on Reconfigurable Computing Systems to present to the class. The student must prepare a brief (about 30 minutes) oral description of the topic, its objectives, methods, results and contributions to present to the class. The articles are selected so that they pertain to current or very recent classroom material.
