DescriptionReconfigurable Supercomputing (RSC) is characterized by hardware that adapts to match the needs of each application, offering unique advantages in performance per unit energy for high-end computing. 2016 is a breakout year for RSC, with datacenter deployment by Microsoft, acquisition of Altera and new devices by Intel, RSC innovations by IBM, new devices and tools by Altera and Xilinx, and success of Novo-G# (world’s first large-scale RSC) in the NSF CHREC Center. This BOF introduces architectures of such systems, describes applications and tools being developed, and provides a forum for discussing emerging opportunities and issues for performance, productivity, and sustainability.
