Abstract
This invention relates to a system on chip for data flow type application. The system comprises a network on chip, a central controller and processing units connected to said network via associated network interfaces. A processing unit and/or its associated network interface can be configured on command from the central controller or on a command incorporated in a data packet to be processed. The network interface comprises a client module that can request a configuration server to transmit the parameters of a configuration that is unavailable in the interface. The invention also relates to a mobile terminal/ a base station comprising a base band modem implemented by such a system on chip.
