Field–programmable technologies, including complex programmable logic devices and systems containing such components, have become an important topic of research for universities, government, and industry worldwide. Field–programmable devices combine the flexibility of software with the performance of hardware. Their regular structure facilitates rapid improvement in density, capability and speed. Field–programmable systems have a wide variety of applications, such as accelerating computations in molecular biology and medical imaging, low–power control and data processing for palm–size computers, and emulating novel electronic products before manufacture; even advanced microprocessors from Intel and ARM have benefited from field–programmable hardware emulators. <b>Keywords:</b> Applications of field–programmable technology: biomedical and scientific computation accelerators, network processors, real–time systems, rapid prototyping, hardware emulation, digital signal processing, interactive multimedia, machine vision, computer graphics, cryptography, robotics, manufacturing systems, embedded applications, evolvable and biologically–inspired hardware.<br>Design techniques and tools for field–programmable technology: placement, routing, synthesis, verification, technology mapping, partitioning, parallelisation, timing optimization, design and run–time environments, languages and modeling techniques, provably–correct development, intellectual property core based design, domain–specific development, hardware/software co–design.<br>Architectures for field–programmable technology: field programmable gate arrays, complex programmable logic devices, field programmable interconnect, field programmable analogue arrays, field programmable arithmetic arrays, memory architectures, interface technologies, low–power techniques, adaptive devices, reconfigurable computing systems, other emerging technologies.<br>Device technology for field–programmable logic: programmable memories including non–volatile, dynamic and static memory cells and arrays, interconnect devices, circuits and switches, emerging VLSI device technologies.
