Abstract

Systems, methods, and devices for enhancing the flexibility of an integrated circuit device with partially reconfigurable regions are provided. For example, a discovery interface may determine and/or communicate a suitable logical protocol interface to control data transfer between regions on the integrated circuit device. The techniques provided herein result in more flexible partial reconfiguration options to enable greater compatibility between accelerator hosts and accelerator function units.
