USE CASE BASED RECONFIGURATION OF CO-PROCESSOR CORES FOR GENERAL PURPOSE PROCESSORS

摘要

A wireless mobile device includes a configurable co-processor core(s). The wireless mobile device also includes a multi-core central processing unit coupled to a memory and the configurable co-processor core(s). The multi-core central processing unit may select from a set of hardware accelerators according to a user's use pattern. The wireless mobile device also includes a hardware controller that reconfigures the configurable co-processor core(s) according to a selected hardware accelerator.
