International Classification:

G06F 17/50

US Classification:

716100

Abstract:

A method configures a plurality of circuit elements for execution of an application in a first configuration. The method monitors the execution of the application on the plurality of circuit elements to produce monitoring information, using a computerized device, and stores the monitoring information in a storage structure. The method selectively communicates the monitoring information to an external element separate from the computerized device. The external element transforms the first configuration into a second configuration based on the monitoring information. The computerized device receives the second configuration from the external element and reconfigures the plurality of elements into the second configuration.
