description: The requirements for high performance and low power consumption are becoming more and more inevitable when designing modern embedded systems, especially for the next generation of multi-mode multimedia or communication standards. Ultra large-scale integration reconfigurable System-on-Chips (SoCs) have been proposed to achieve not only better performance and lower energy consumption but also higher flexibility and versatility in comparison with the conventional architectures. The unique characteristic of such systems is the integration of many types of heterogeneous reconfigurable processing fabrics based on a Network-on-Chip. This paper analyzes and emphasizes the key research trends of reconfigurable System-on-Chips (SoCs). Firstly, the emerging hardware architecture of SoCs is highlighted. Afterwards, the key issues of designing reconfigurable SoCs are discussed, with the focus on the challenges when designing reconfigurable hardware fabrics and reconfigurable Network-on-Chips. Finally, some state-of-the-art reconfigurable SoCs are briefly discussed.
