    摘要: Provided are a multitasking method and apparatus. By continuously maintaining the intrinsic information of each peripheral processing unit of when a process-centered task is stopped, when a reconfigurable array stops executing the process-centered task and executes a different process-centered task, by stopping executing a control-centered task and executing a reconfiguration task, only when the reconfigurable array receives an execution request of the reconfiguration task while the reconfigurable array is performing the control-centered task, or by causing a predetermined number of processing units to execute each of a plurality of reconfiguration tasks that are to be simultaneously executed by the reconfigurable array, wherein the predetermined number of processing units is set in consideration of an expected data processing amount required for the reconfiguration task, the reconfigurable array can more quickly complete execution of multitasking.

    摘要: Provided are an apparatus for reconfiguring a mapping method and a scheduling method in a reconfigurable multi-processor system. A single function is mapped to a reconfigurable processor. When a task is created in the reconfigurable multi-processor system, a function of the task is dynamically mapped to a host processor or a reconfigurable processor, thereby removing temporal sharing between functions on the reconfigurable processor and thus reducing the number of times reconfiguration is performed. The overhead of the reconfigurable processor is minimized and the reconfigurable processor is optimized for a dynamic multi-application environment.

    摘要: A multi-tasking method performs a plurality of tasks according to priority of each of the plurality of tasks. It is determined whether a resource that is to be used by a current task is being used by another task, a priority of the current task is compared to a priority of the task that is using the resource according to a result of the determination, and according to a result of the comparison, the priority of the task that is using the resource is increased to a highest priority of priorities of all tasks trying to occupy a CPU. Accordingly, conventional problems in the BPI and IIP schemes can be solved.

The context switching system include a reconfigurable processor reconfiguring a program according to reconfiguration information and executing the reconfigured program, a central processing unit outputting a load command for sequentially loading reconfiguration information required for a plurality of tasks, in order to control the plurality of tasks, a reconfiguration information selecting unit selecting reconfiguration information for context switching, a reconfiguration information loading unit receiving the load command from the central processing unit, and loading reconfiguration information corresponding to the load command from a memory, and a plurality of reconfiguration information storage units storing the reconfiguration information loaded by the reconfiguration information loading unit. Accordingly, by pre-loading reconfiguration information which is required many times while context switching is performed, it is possible to quickly perform context switching and perform multitasking with a small overhead.
