Abstract

A reconfigurable computing chip, a method for configuring the reconfigurable computing chip, a method for convolution process, a device for convolution process, a computer readable storage medium and a computer program product are provided. The reconfigurable computing chip comprises a processing module including multiple processing cores sharing a first cache, wherein each of the plurality of processing cores includes multiple processing elements sharing a second cache, each of the plurality of processing elements monopolizes a third cache corresponding to said processing element, wherein the reconfigurable computing chip is dynamically configured to perform convolution process on an input feature map and a convolution kernel to obtain an output feature map, and each of the multiple processing elements is dynamically configured to perform a multiplication-plus-addition process on a part of the input feature map and a part of the convolution kernel to obtain a part of the output feature map.
