ABSTRACT:
A method for operating a network computer wherein the network computer has reconfigurable hardware that can be connected to a network. The hardware includes one FPGA, a plurality of FPGAs, or a plurality of FPGAs with processors and memory. Advantageously, the computer is dynamically structurable via the network.
