This paper presents an architectural proposal for a hardware based interval type-2 fuzzy inference system. It proposes a computational model which considers parallel inference processing and inner-outer bound sets-based type reduction. Taking into account this model, we conceived a hardware architecture for a type-2 fuzzy system with several pipeline stages for full parallel execution of fuzzy inferences. Distributed arithmetic is proposed for efficiently computing on hardware the type-reduction stage. The architectural proposal is used for specifying a type-2 fuzzy processor with reconfigurable rule base. It was synthesized and implemented onto two programmable logic devices.
