Dynamic reconfiguration computer product, apparatus, and method

A dynamic reconfiguration apparatus that switches process by process, execution of a series of processes for which reconfiguration is to be performed, from execution by software over to execution by hardware, the dynamic reconfiguration apparatus comprising:

• a detecting unit that detects in an order reverse to that in which the series of processes is executed, a process that is among the series of processes and under execution by the software;
• a building unit that builds on the hardware, a logic circuit realizing a function of the detected process;
• and
• a switching unit that switches execution of the process from execution by the software over to execution by the built logic circuit.
