Dynamic reconfiguration is the ability to modify a parallel or distributed system while it is
running. We adopt the framework developed by Kramer et al.(1985) at the system …

The dynamic reconfiguration of the interconnection network is an advanced feature of some
multicomputers to reduce the communication overhead. The authors present an algorithm …

Dynamic reconfiguration of a distributed application is the act of changing the configuration
of the application as it executes. Examples of configuration changes are replacing a …

Gerel is a generic reconfiguration language, which can be used to describe and implement
dynamically reconfigurable distributed applications. Gerel is based on a powerful object …

Dynamic reconfiguration techniques appear promising for building systems that have
requirements for adaptability and/or high availability. Current systems that support dynamic …

The aim of dynamic reconfiguration is to allow a system to evolve incrementally from one
configuration to another at run-time, without restarting it or taking it offline. In recent years …

In an evolving environment where unpredictable changes can occur, or where changes can
occur at unpredictable times, it is essential to take a flexible approach to configuration …

Dynamic reconfiguration is gaining popularity [2],[4] but it may cause degradation of overall
execution time due to the time to download the bitstream before an application starts …

Dynamic reconfiguration allows the system configuration to be changed while the system is
in execution. It is definitely a desirable property for any large distributed system where …

Systems are more and more expected to work in dynamic environment, to deal with
fluctuation of their characteristics and to guaranty functional and nonfunctional requirements …
