Abstract

A computer system for cycle-based computation includes a processor array, a translation component adapted to translate a cycle-based design, a host computer operatively connected to the processor array and to the translation component, a data connection component interconnecting a plurality of members of the processor array using static routing, a synchronization component enabling known timing relationships among the plurality of members of the processor array, a host service request component adapted to send a host service request from a member of the processor array to the host computer, and an access component adapted to access a portion of a state of the processor array and a portion of a state of the data connection.
