To CasC people interested in the hardware thread:
I recommend visiting http://www.starbridgesystems.com/

If we interpret a "unit" (or aggregations of units) of such a 
reconfigurable machine as minimalistic "objects" (in the OOP sense), these 
objects can be described by
1. State patterns ("member data")
2. Activity patterns ("member methods").

Data define which way methods will take. Methods define the future of data. 
Neither will do alone. CasC will be successful only when we succeed 
compressing this interwoven ...-state-activity-state-activity-... scenario 
- keeping it alive.

Compression in terms of a reconfigurable computer: Re-arrange the units of 
this computer in such a way that the computer (externally) does the same as 
before but with less units.

Regards,
Detlef
