Abstract
The exemplary embodiments provide a program binder for a resilient integrated circuit. An exemplary IC comprises a plurality of composite circuit elements, a state machine element (SME), and a plurality of communication elements. Each composite circuit element comprises an element interface and a selected circuit element which may vary by element type, and which may be configurable. An exemplary program binding method includes assigning a first action to a first computational element having a first type; assigning a second action to a second computational element having a second type; and establishing a first data routing, through a selected communication element, between the first computational element and the second computational element. In the event of detection of a fault with a composite circuit element or a communication element, the various actions may be re-assigned and new data routings established.
