Abstract
A reconfigurable compute fabric can include multiple nodes, and each node can include multiple tiles with respective processing and storage elements. The tiles can be arranged in an array or grid and can be communicatively coupled. In an example, the tiles can be arranged in a one-dimensional array and each tile can be coupled to its respective adjacent neighbor tiles using a direct bus coupling. Each tile can be further coupled to at least one non-adjacent neighbor tile that is one tile, or device space, away using a passthrough bus. The passthrough bus can extend through intervening tiles.
