Configurable computing offers the potential of producing powerful new computing systems. Will current research overcome the dearth of commercial applicability to make such systems a reality? Unfortunately, no system to date has yet proven attractive or competitive enough to establish a commercial presence. We believe that ample opportunity exists for work in a broad range of areas. In particular, the configurable computing community should focus on refining the emerging architectures, producing more effective software/hardware APIs, better tools for application development that incorporate the models of hardware reconfiguration, and effective benchmarking strategies
