FRED is a framework to support the design, development, and execution of predictable software on FPGA system-on-chips platforms.
It exploits dynamic partial reconfiguration and recurrent execution to virtualize the FPGA fabric, enabling the user to allocate a larger number of hardware accelerators than could otherwise be fit into the physical fabric.
It integrates automated floorplanning and a set of runtime mechanisms to enhance predictability by scheduling hardware resources and regulating bus/memory contention.
