WASMII is virtual hardware using a multi-context reconfigurable device with a data driven control. Although the system has been evaluated using an emulator, implementation of WASMII was infeasible due to the unavailability of such a device. However, NEC has developed the first reconfigurable multi-context device called DRL. Making the use of its flexible reconfigurability, we have implemented a mechanism of WASMII on DRL.
