Thereby, these systems enable to optimize the execution of application to some extend by hardware accelerators in the FPGA fabric. However, hardware accelerator development requires special skills from the developer since hardware development differs substantial from software development. Overlays offer a way to abstract the complexity of FPGA usage by predefined programmable hardware architectures. With Dynamic Partial reconfiguration (DPR) it becomes possible to exchange parts of an overlay’s architecture without affecting the operation of the remaining parts. In this article, we present a first version of our framework to ease the integration of hardware accelerators in Python via DPR overlays. The integration into Python is based on Xilinx PYNQ. The framework approach is based on our Python package ‘pynqpartial’.
