Abstract
A data processing device includes a memory, a processing unit, a logic element, a first database and a management unit. The memory stores a plurality of software modules which processes input data. The processing unit enables to execute the plurality of software module. The logic element enables to configure a plurality of hardware modules, which can perform processings equivalent to those performed by the plurality of software module, using a dynamic reconfiguration. The first database stores configuration information indicating a configuration of the plurality of hardware modules when the plurality of hardware modules is set to the logic element. The management unit determines a first software module to be set to the logic element as a hardware module in the plurality of software modules on the basis of a predetermined condition with respect to a processing of the input data, and sets a first hardware module corresponding to the first software module to the logic element with reference to the first database.
