Abstract
This paper introduces the ReSArT ( Reconfigurable Scalable Architecture Template). Based on a suitable design space model, ReSArT is parametrizable, scalable, and able to support all levels of parallelism. To derive architecture instances from the template, a design environment called DEfInE ( Design Environment for ReSArT Instance G eneration) is used, which integrates some existing academic and industrial tools with ReSArT-specific components, developed as a part of this work. Different architecture instances were tested with a set of 10 benchmark applications as a proof of concept, achieving a maximum degree of parallelism of 30 and an average degree of parallelism of nearly 20 16-bit operations per cycle.

Inter-processor connection reconfiguration based on dynamic look-ahead control of multiple crossbar switches

TL;DR: Automatic program structuring is proposed based on the analysis of parallel program graphs that finds the partition into sections that minimizes the execution time of a program executed with the look-ahead created connections.
