RECONFIGURABLE PROCESSOR FABRIC IMPLEMENTATION USING SATISFIABILITY ANALYSIS

摘要

Disclosed techniques utilize a satisfiability solver for allocation and/or configuration of resources in a reconfigurable fabric of processing elements. A dataflow graph is an input provided to a toolchain that includes a satisfiability solver. The satisfiability solver operates on subsets of interconnected nodes within a dataflow graph to derive a solution. The solution is trimmed by removing artifacts and unnecessary parts. The solutions of subsets are then used as an input to additional subsets of nodes within the dataflow graph in an iterative process to derive a complete solution. The satisfiability solver technique uses adaptive windowing in both the time dimension and the spatial dimensions of the dataflow graph. Processing elements and routing elements within the reconfigurable fabric are configured based on the complete solution. Data computation is performed based on the dataflow graph using the processing elements and the routing resources.
