  text: In this chapter, we present an introduction to the ReconOS operating system
    for reconfigurable computing. ReconOS offers a unified multi-threaded programming
    model and operating system services for threads executing in software and threads
    mapped to reconfigurable hardware. By supporting standard POSIX operating system
    functions for both software and hardware threads, ReconOS particularly caters
    to developers with a software background, because developers can use well-known
    mechanisms such as semaphores, mutexes, condition variables, and message queues
    for developing hybrid applications with threads running on the CPU and FPGA concurrently.
    Through the semantic integration of hardware accelerators into a standard operating
    system environment, ReconOS allows for rapid design space exploration, supports
    a structured application development process and improves the portability of applications
    between different reconfigurable computing systems.
