Abstract: The requirements of a general purpose massively parallel processing system are outlined. The suitability of a finegrained self-reconfigurable system to general massively parallel processing is shown. A new type of self-reconfigurable device called the PIG is introduced, and details of its design and operation are explained. The PIG's uniqueness compared to other reconfigurable systems is discussed. This uniqueness is further illustrated through specific examples of PIG circuits. An application... (Update)
