Abstract:
Techniques for specifying and implementing a software application targeted for execution on a multiprocessor array (MPA). The MPA may include a plurality of processing elements, supporting memory, and a high bandwidth interconnection network (IN), communicatively coupling the plurality of processing elements and supporting memory. In some embodiments, software code may include first program instructions executable to perform a function. In some embodiments, the software code may also include one or more language constructs that are configurable to specify one or more one or more parameter inputs. In some embodiments, the one or more parameter inputs are configurable to specify a set of hardware resources usable to execute the software code. In some embodiments, the hardware resources include multiple processors and may include multiple supporting memories.

Claim (Index 11):
A method for configuring a multiprocessor array (MPA), wherein the MPA comprises hardware resources including a plurality of processors and a plurality of memories, the method comprising:\n accessing a library of software code in a memory medium, wherein the software code includes a cell definition that includes first program instructions executable to perform a first function, wherein the cell definition comprises one or more language constructs which specify properties of a set of hardware resources for deployment of the cell; receiving user input creating multiple instances of the first program instructions specified by the cell definition for use in one or more applications, wherein the user input includes input to the one or more language constructs specifying different amounts of hardware resources for respective ones of the multiple instances; and wherein the multiple instances of the cell are deployable such that amounts of hardware resources in respective hardware portions on which the respective instances are deployed are different based on the user input to the one or more language constructs.
