Abstract

The foundations for building the first Reliable Reconfigurable Real-Time Operating System (R3TOS) are presented. The main objective of R3TOS is to create an infrastructure for coordinately executing specialized hardware tasks upon a reconfigurable FPGA device, achieving the necessary flexibility for both gaining system performance (true hardware multitasking) and tolerating the occurring faults in the underlying chip's silicon at runtime (true fault removal from system). R3TOS is aimed at easing the development of FPGA-based high-performance demanding reliable applications by hiding the complexity of these devices, promoting their use by the whole engineering community.
