PIPELINE CONFIGURATION UNIT PROTOCOLS AND COMMUNICATION

摘要

The invention relates to a comprehensive method for efficiently configuring and reconfiguring, especially for the running time and also during data processing, a collection of modules, whose function and networking can be modified, by means of one or more intercommunicating configuration units. The precise configuration in a complex technical transformation is, in particular, in the foreground. This includes the description of the state automatons, of the communications structures, of the reconfiguration execution, and of the protocols required each time. The invention is characterized by the ability to effect a permanent as well as overlapping reconfiguration without the occurrence of blockings or error functions, particularly in the data processing.
