Claim 16:
17. A method of controlling work flow in a distributed computation system, the method comprising:
receiving a work flow comprising a job to be performed by a first memory unit;
performing, by the first memory unit, at least a portion of the job according to the work flow; and
receiving, by a second memory unit, a remainder of the work flow,
wherein at least one of the first and second memory units comprises a programmable memory cell configured to be reconfigured to:
operate from a memory for performing storage operations to operate as a computation unit based on a computational requirement of the workflow; and
operate from the computation unit to operate as the memory for performing storage operations based on a storage requirement for an extension of memory.
