SCRC has been performing state-of-the-art research concerning the
design and evaluation of reliable, testable and
maintainable computer systems since the early 1970s.

Quickturn's role in the project will be to develop rapid
reconfiguration techniques for adaptive systems. The company
will apply its expertise in creating "virtual silicon" emulations of
electronic designs that allow users to verify that
specialty chips and custom integrated circuits work correctly with
system hardware and software.

"Adaptive computing requires rapidly configurable hardware computing
platforms," Butts said. "This technology has
the potential to replace traditional Von Neumann architectures and
promises to increase computer power by 100 to 1
million times in certain applications."

The team from the University of Texas will investigate hardware design
techniques that allow field programmable
devices to test themselves and precisely locate any defects. "Our
charter is to develop adaptive hardware that
significantly increases dependability at low cost," team leader Touba
said.

In addition, Interra Inc. of San Jose, which provides automation
software and services for high-technology industries,
will work with SCRC researchers to produce enhanced design tools for
the project.
