 One of the most important research area in computer hardware is reconfigurable computing and it is becoming gradually more attractive for many useful applications. Reconfiguration is the process of changing the structure of a reconfigurable device at start-up time. In Reconfiguration there are many issues, among them reconfiguration time is the main factor. Media applications such as voice and video processing as in HDTV and some real time applications are becoming increasingly complex and consume more time and more computing power. The main objective of this paper is to reduce the reconfiguration time by applying Multi-Agents to the system. By doing so, they provide better price per performance and consume less power computation. A comparison is made between the traditional architecture without agent and proposed architecture with agents.
