Untethered On-The-Fly Radio Assembly With Wires-On-Demand

In systems typified by software defined radio, existing flows for run-time FPGA reconfiguration limit resource efficiency when constructing datapaths. We present the wires-on-demand framework that allocates a sandbox region in which modules from a library are flexibly placed and interconnected rapidly and autonomously in an embedded platform without vendor tools.
