Reconfigurable computing is emerging as a viable design alternative to implement a wide range of computationally intensive applications. The scheduling problem becomes a really critical issue in achieving the high performance that these kind of applications demands. This paper describes the different aspects regarding the scheduling problem in a reconfigurable architecture. We also propose a general strategy in order to perform at compilation time a scheduling that includes all possible

... tions regarding context (configuration) and data transfers. In particular, we focus especially on the methodology and mechanisms to solve the context scheduling. Some experimental results are presented to validate our assumptions. Finally, the problem of data transfers is only formulated and will be addressed in future work.
