Abstract
A system for executing a graph partitioned across a plurality of reconfigurable computing units includes a processing node that has a first computing unit reconfigurable at a first level of configuration granularity and a second computing unit reconfigurable at a second, finer, level of configuration granularity. The first computing unit is configured by a host system to execute a first dataflow segment of the graph using one or more dataflow pipelines to generate a first intermediate result and to provide the first intermediate result to the second computing unit without passing through the host system. The second computing unit is configured by the host system to execute a second dataflow segment of the graph, dependent upon the first intermediate result, to generate a second intermediate result and to send the second intermediate result to a third computing unit, without passing through the host system, to continue execution of the graph.
