Abstract
A processor includes a plurality of processing tiles, wherein each tile is configured at runtime to perforin a configurable operation. A first subset of tiles are configured to perform in a pipeline a first plurality of configurable operations in parallel. A second subset of tiles are configured to perform a second plurality of configurable operations in parallel with the first plurality of configurable operations. The process also includes a multi-port memory access module operably connected to the plurality of tiles via a data bus configured to control access to a memory and to provide data to two or more processing tiles simultaneously. The processor also includes a controller operably connected to the plurality of tiles and the multi-port memory access module via a runtime bus. The processor configures the tiles and the multi-port memory access module to execute a computation.
