US Patent 11182264 Intra-node buffer-based streaming for reconfigurable processor-as-a-service (RPaaS)

A data processing system comprises a plurality of reconfigurable processors including a first reconfigurable processor and additional reconfigurable processors, a plurality of buffers in a shared memory accessible to the first reconfigurable processor and the additional reconfigurable processors, and runtime logic configured to execute one or more configuration files for applications using the first reconfigurable processor and the additional reconfigurable processors. Execution of the configuration files includes receiving data from the first reconfigurable processor and providing the data to at least one of the additional reconfigurable processors, and receiving data from the at least one of the additional reconfigurable processors and providing the data to the first reconfigurable processor.
