''Update/Note (03.14.2007):'' Google has been ranking this page as the Number 1 hit for "xilkernel". This page is slightly outdated. An up-to-date set of our xilkernel reference designs and demos may be found [http://warp.rice.edu/trac/wiki/xilkernel_ref here]. 

We also have a xilkernel overview which can be found [http://warp.rice.edu/trac/wiki/ppc_prog_overview/xilkernel#XilkernelSupportandProgramming here].

This project is a modified Xilinx-created project intended to demonstrate some of the functionality of the xilkernel. It has been modified to operate on the TAP FPGA Boards versions 1.0 and 1.1. The project demonstrates features such as: dynamic memory allocation, multi-threaded operations, and software timers. This project serves as the basis for the current [wiki:"ACKMAC"].
