An Evolvable Combinational Unit for FPGAs
Original language description
A complete hardware implementation of an evolvable combinational unit for FPGAs is presented. The proposed combinational unit consisting of a virtual reconfigurable circuit and evolutionary algorithm was described in VHDL independently of a target platform, i.e. as a soft IP core, and realized in the COMBO6 card. In many cases the unit is able to evolve (i.e. to design) the required function automatically and autonomously, in a few seconds, only on the basis of interactions with an environment. A numberr of circuits were successfully evolved directly in the FPGA, in particular, 3-bit multipliers, adders, multiplexers and parity encoders. The evolvable unit was also tested in a simulated dynamic environment and used to design various circuits specifiedby randomly generated truth tables. <br>

Czech description
Článek popisuje kompletní obvodovou realizaci vyvíjející se kombinační jednotky pro FPGA. Navržená jednotka sestávající z virtuálního rekonfigurovatelného obvodu a evolučního algoritmu byla popsána ve VHDL nezávisle na cílové platformě, tj. jako soft IPcore, a implementována na kartě Combo6. Jednotka je schopna automaticky vyevolvovat realizaci požadované kombinační funkce pouze na základě interakce s prostředím.
