Unified memory apparatus for reconfigurable processor and method of using the unified memory apparatus

摘要

A unified memory apparatus for a reconfigurable processor and a method of using the unified memory apparatus are provided. The unified memory apparatus includes: a first memory to store data; and a second memory to store configuration information used to reconfigure a system for a processor to perform a predetermined function, wherein the first memory and the second memory are physically unified in a unified memory. Thus, a memory space can be efficiently used according to data and size of configuration information.
