Abstract: In one general aspect, a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium can be configured to store instructions that when executed cause a processor to perform a process. The process can include defining a plurality of subsets from a representation of a circuit, and rank-ordering each subset from the plurality of subsets. The process can also include selecting at least one of the subsets for triplication based on the rank-ordering and a triplication condition.

Abstract: A method for relocating modules within a programmable logic array is disclosed and used to produce a dynamically-reconfigurable digital processor. The method consists of creating relocatable intermediate circuit modules that can be stored in a configuration library. These modules contain the computation engine and its control logic for executing a portion of an application. When a new module needs to be loaded, an unused portion of the programmable logic array of sufficient size is located, the module from the configuration library is relocated, and the final circuit module is placed in the programmable logic array, configuring it for executing the portion of the application.
