Temporal runtime-reconfiguration of FPGAs allows for a resource-efficient sequential execution of signal processing modules. Approaches for partitioning processing chains into modules have been derived in various previous works. We will present a metric for weighted partitioning of pre-defined processing element sequences. The proposed method yields a set of reconfigurable partitions, which are balanced in terms of resources, while jointly have a minimal data throughput. Using this metric, we will formulate a partitioning algorithm with linear complexity and will compare our approach to the state of the art.
