After a task image has been linked, it must be configured. This process decides how the various parts of the program are to be mapped onto your C6000 processor's memory, and creates an application file by attaching the 3L microkernel, tasks required for communication, and so on. This is done by the Diamond multiprocessor compiler, known as the configurer. Its full purpose is to bind together a number of Diamond tasks, ready to be loaded into a network of processors, but here we are using it only in a simple way. See: The Configurer and configuration language.
