摘要: For ultra-low-power sensor networks, finite state machines are used for simple tasks where the system’s microprocessor would be overqualified. This allows to remain in a sleep state, thus saving energy. paper presents new architecture that is specifically optimized implementing reconfigurable Finite State Machines: Transition-based Reconfigurable FSM (TR-FSM). The proposed combines low use of resources with (nearly) FPGA-like reconfigurability.
