ABSTRACT:
A method, medium, and apparatus to effectively handle an interrupt in a reconfigurable array. In the method, the reconfigurable array pauses execution of an operation when an interrupt request occurs, and after storing register values of a register to be used for handling the interrupt request, an interrupt service is performed by select processing units of the reconfigurable array in response to the interrupt request. Upon completion of the interrupt service, the register values are restored, and the reconfigurable array resumes execution of the operation.
