Abstract

In accordance with the invention, a system that utilizes an operating system stored in reconfigurable logic is provided. The system includes a reconfigurable logic device that has at least a portion of an operating system stored on it. The operating system is operable to manage one or multiple hardware and/or software processes. A method for controlling processes of a system is also provided. According to the method, an operating system is initiated. At least a portion, and preferably all, of the operating system is stored on a reconfigurable logic device. The operating system is utilized to manage at least one hardware and/or software process including applications.
