Abstract
Genetic Algorithm (GA) which imitates the process of nature evolution is applied to various fields because it is simple to theory and easy to application. Recently applying GA to hardware, it is to proceed the research of Evolvable Hardware(EHW) developing the structure of hardware and reconstructing it. And it is growing a necessity of GAP that embodies the computation of GA to the hardware. Evolving by GA don't act in the software but in the hardware(GAP) will be necessary for the design of independent EHW. This paper shows the design GAP for fast reconfiguration of EHW.
