Abstract
The present invention provides a reconfigurable processing apparatus enabling clusters to utilize a shared functional unit by using data and a validity signal received from the clusters by way of a network therebetween. In the reconfigurable processing apparatus comprising one or more clusters which are reconfigured based on configuration information, the shared functional unit accepts an input data and an input valid signal from the clusters, the input valid signal starts up the shared functional unit so as to operate the input data received with the input valid signal and output, to the cluster, an output data as the operation result and an output valid signal for notifying of the cluster as an output destination of the aforementioned output data.
