Reconfigurable computing has become an essential part of research in the domain of modern computing paradigms. Reconfigurable computing approach integrates both, the performance and flexibility gaining aspects on a single computing system. The computational performance of such kind of systems is crucially dependant on the configuration overheads caused by configuration management unit. Performance of the configuration management unit greatly accelerates the computational power of reconfigurable computing system. There are a large number of control and management techniques which can be used to improve this technology. This research paper presents a comprehensive analysis of existing performance enhancement methodologies in practice. The paper also point outs the different aspects of configuration management for critical analysis and further optimization.

Reconfigurable computing has become an essential part of research since last few decades. By placing computationally intensive applications in the reconfigurable logic area of the system, the remarkable performance gains have been found. Among the different research directions in the domain of reconfigurable computing, the use of multiple reconfigurable devices has become the most promising solution for highly expandable reconfigurable computing platforms. In this research paper an emerging design of a Multi-FPGA based platform has been presented with the characteristics of being highly expandable for incorporating many devices according to future needs. The design of this platform is encountering the capability of being usable for highly scalable reconfigurable computing applications. The presented platform is based on an emerging concept of using multidimensional computing nodes with most optimal configuration propagation latencies.
