Abstract
A reconfigurable circuit design method includes an input step of inputting design data of a default configuration of a reconfigurable circuit including a plurality of processor elements which perform processing and a first generation step of generating design data obtained by modifying at least one of the processor elements in the reconfigurable circuit with the default configuration.
Claims10
A reconfigurable circuit design method comprising:
- an input step of inputting design data representing a default configuration of a reconfigurable circuit, wherein the design data includes a description of a plurality of processor elements;
- and
- a first generation step of generating first additional design data, wherein the first additional design data is obtained by modifying the design data such that at least one of the processor elements in the reconfigurable circuit with the default configuration is modified.
The reconfigurable circuit design method according to claim wherein
- the third generation step further comprises generating the third additional design data by replacing at least one of the cluster groups in the reconfigurable circuit with another cluster group.
A reconfigurable circuit design apparatus comprising:
- an input section which inputs design data of a default configuration of a reconfigurable circuit including a plurality of processor elements configured to perform processing;
- and
- a first generation section which generates first additional design data by modifying at least one of the processor elements of the reconfigurable circuit with the default configuration.
A reconfigurable circuit comprising
- a plurality of clusters,
- wherein each of the clusters includes a plurality of processor elements configured to perform an operation.
