US Patent 11200096 Resource allocation for reconfigurable processors

A system is described that has a node and runtime logic. The node has a plurality of processing elements operatively coupled by interconnects. The runtime logic is configured to receive target interconnect bandwidth, target interconnect latency, rated interconnect bandwidth and rated interconnect latency. The runtime logic responds by allocating to configuration files defined by the application graph: (1) processing elements in the plurality of processing elements, and (2) interconnects between the processing elements. The runtime logic further responds by executing the configuration files using the allocated processing elements and the allocated interconnects.
