Zusammenfassung:Techniques are disclosed for circuit configuration. Information is obtained on logical distances between reconfigurable fabric circuits on a semiconductor chip. A plurality of clusters is identified within the reconfigurable fabric circuits on the semiconductor chip. A cycle count separation across the plurality of cluster is evaluated using information on the logical distances. A plurality of counter initializations is calculated where the counter initializations compensate for the cycle count separation across the clusters. A plurality of counters is initialized, with a counter from the plurality of counters being associated with each cluster from the plurality of clusters, where the counters are distributed across the clusters, and where the initializing is based on the counter initializations that were calculated. The plurality of counters is started to coordinate configuration across the plurality of clusters. Logical configuration of the clusters as a function of the initializing of the counters is enabled.
