Zusammenfassung:A system includes a multidimensional array of homogenous Functional Configurable Units (FCUs), coupled using a multidimensional array of switches, and a parameter store on the device which stores parameters that tag a subarray of FCUs as unusable. Technologies are described which change the pattern of placement of configuration data, in dependence on the tagged subarray, by changing the routing through the array of switches. As a result, a multidimensional array of FCUs having unusable elements can still be used.
