In order to use FPGAs efficiently, new CAD tools and modern architectures are needed for the growing demands of heterogeneous computing paradigms. Overlay architectures have become a popular option to support a variety of high-performance computing applications implemented on heterogeneous computing platforms. However, most of these architectures cannot offer an efficient way to dynamically debug and repair them. In this paper, we propose a superimposed virtual coarse-grained reconfigurable architecture, embedded with on-demand debug and self-healing capabilities. The proposed method automatically creates flexible techniques for in-circuit error detection and correction of generic Processing Elements and Virtual Channels. The debugging infrastructure is integrated in the design with tailor-made CAD tools, making feasible to rapidly debug and repair virtual architectures with minimal use of additional FPGA resources. Keywords FPGA · CGRA · In-circuit debugging · Repair · Parameterized configuration · On-silicon debug · Verification · FPGA overlay 1 Introduction Field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) continue to gain momentum with the rise of complex system designs that require optimum flexibility at the cost of performance. Since their invention, FPGAs have evolved from being simple glue logic chips and systems sued for chip prototyping to actually replacing custom application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) and processors in various applications, such as digital signal processing, big data processing, in-mission critical systems and security applications. Moreover, the popularity of FPGAs has increased in the recent years. This is evident by Intel’s acquisition of Altera and various efforts to integrate FPGA technologies in the cloud, such as F1- Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure [1, 32, 36]. In order to be efficiently used in this variety of applications, Responsible Editor: L. M. Bolzani P ¨ ohls Alexandra Kourfali [email protected] https://www.ugent.be Extended author information available on the last page of the article. new CAD tools are needed for the growing demands on design, verification and debugging efficiency. So far, in order to debug and verify a design, the designers would indulge in long verification cycles. Initially, this was done via simulation. Simulation provides full internal observability and software-like debugging capabilities. However, it is slow and cannot always demonstrate realistic scenarios [11, 35]. FPGA emulation can provide higher verification coverage compared to simulation, allowing designers to test their design using realistic scenarios. The main drawback of using FPGA emulation is the limited internal signal observability. While simulation gives full visibility, FPGA emulation allows the designer to observe only the signals that are driven through the scarce output pins by employing on-chip RAM blocks known as trace- buffers [5, 14, 24]. This limits the productivity of debugging via FPGA emulation, as the designer has to recompile the entire FPGA in order to observe different signals through the output pins. Moreover, the cost of emulators is too high. In-circuit debuggers provide ways to observe more internal signals and therefore offer in-circuit debugging infrastructure that enables the designer to trace and observe a set of signals [23, 39, 45]. This is done by storing data in the trace-buffers and then debugging it off-line. In- circuit debugging is an increasingly difficult problem, as

The Port is currently studying different concepts for accommodating passenger and cargo demand sustainably. The work will identify a range of alternatives and we will conduct environmental review throughout 2016-2017, including public input before the Master Plan is adopted.

Throughout the development of the Airport Master Plan, the Port is working closely with all parties—local government, regulatory agencies, transportation agencies, regional and nearby communities. As the Master Plan is being developed the Port is holding open houses, and airport community and business workshops. We’ve also conducted briefings with local governments, the FAA, and organizations that represent environmental and economic development interests, and gathered input from public agencies to develop transportation strategies to help passengers get to the airport.

These discussions are crucial to creating a Master Plan that will serve our region well over the next 20 years. This means that we must meet the air transportation needs of our community and continue to be a good neighbor.

SEA-TAC AIRPORT MASTER PLANA blueprint for a sustainable future at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport

Sea-Tac Airport is a portal for continued economic opportunity for the people of Washington State. Demand for commercial air service is at a record high, and expected to double by 2035.

How can Sea-Tac best meet the commercial air service needs for our community?

WHAT’S AT STAKE? WHAT’S THE OPPORTUNITY?

JOBSincluding 109,924 direct jobs

18,500 jobs located directly at the airport

about 21%are held by employees who live in the communities that surround the airport

SEA-TAC’S ROLE AND OBLIGATION is to serve as an essential public facility to support Washington’s growing economy. As important, Sea-Tac Airport is pledged to be a responsible environmental steward and good neighbor.

We need a plan that will work for everyone. That is why the Port of Seattle is working throughout our community to develop a master plan to provide a 20-year blueprint for Sea-Tac Airport to sustainably accommodate future growth.

Key Elements of the Sea-Tac Airport Master Plan

• Future growth will be served within Sea-Tac’s existing 3 runway configuration

• Potential strategies include terminal expansion, airfield and cargo improvements, efficiency enhancements, environmental management and landside access.

• Sea-Tac will be the first U.S. large hub airport to fully incorporate sustainability into planning its facilities, operations and management.

$6.1 billion in personal income

$16.3 billion in business revenue

$565million in state and

local taxes

MIDDLE-CLASS JOBSA 2013 study commissioned by the Port of Seattle found that passengers arriving at Sea-Tac generated 171,796 jobs, including 109,924 direct jobs, $6.1 billion in personal income,$16.3 billion in business revenue and $565 million in state and local taxes annually.

Airport communities benefit directly from their economic interaction with Sea-Tac Airport.

Of the 18,500 jobs located directly at the airport, about 21 percent are held by employees who live in the communities that surround the airport.

ECONOMIC COMPETITIVENESSTHIS IS AN ERA OF GLOBAL CONNECTIVITY.

Washington is the birthplace and home to businesses and organizations that continue to shape the world we know today—companies and organizations such as Microsoft, Boeing, Starbucks, Costco, the Gates Foundation, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, our universities and Amazon.

Sustaining the region's worldwide reputation as a center of innovation and excellence rests on our ability to maintain our connections to the rest of the world.

CONNECTED COMMUNITIESOur entire community benefits from the cultural and economic exchange made possible by Sea-Tac.

About 9 million out-of-town visitors arrived via Sea-Tac for business or pleasure in 2013.

When these travelers spent their money in our region and our state, it generated substantial economic impacts, including $365 million in state and local taxes.

Visitors stay at our hotels, enjoy our theaters, eat at our great restaurants, board our cruises and experience our stunning natural environment and quality of life.

OUR ENVIRONMENTOUR NATURAL ENVIRONMENT IS OUR GREATEST TREASURE.

Sea-Tac has been a national leader with initiatives in the areas of climate protection, energy conservation, stormwater treatment, habitat protection, noise mitigation, recycling and waste management.

The Airport Master Plan embraces the Port of Seattle’s environmental goals to reduce greenhouse gas emissions at Sea-Tac by 50% and aircraft-related by 25% from 2005 levels and to meet or exceed all permit requirements for stormwater leaving port property.

All new and renovated buildings in the Master Plan will be evaluated to maximize environmental quality and each of the Master Plan alternatives will be subject to stringent environmental analysis.
