ABSTRACT:
A reconfigurable integrated circuit device which converts an arbitrary calculation state dynamically, based on configuration data, includes a plurality of processor elements, each of which has an input terminal, an output terminal, a plurality of arithmetic units which are provided in parallel and each of which performs calculation processing in synchronous with a clock signal, and an intra-processor network which connects them in an arbitrary state; and an inter-processor network which connects between processor elements in an arbitrary state. Based on configuration data, the intra-processor network is reconfigurable to a desired connection state, and further, based on the configuration data, the inter-processor network is reconfigurable to a desired connection state.
