Abstract: The extensive use of reconfigurable computing devices has imposed a new
category of processors, the dynamic instruction set processors (DISPs) that
customize their instruction sets dynamically to the application needs. One of
the major drawbacks of DISPs is the reconfiguration time needed to alter the
instruction set, which is directly added to the program execution time
discouraging the use of DISPs especially for time critical processing
applications. This paper introduces a methodology for optimizing reconfiguration
time through instruction forecasting and presents the results obtained when applying this method to Medium Access
processing systems that execute time critical network tasks.
