| 1. An apparatus comprising:
a communication element; and
a plurality of composite circuit elements coupled to the communication element, each composite circuit element comprising
an element interface and a circuit element of a plurality of circuit element types, a first composite circuit element of the
plurality of composite circuit elements to perform a first function, a second composite circuit element of the plurality of
composite circuit elements to perform a second function, a third composite circuit element of the plurality of composite circuit
elements to perform the second function, the first composite circuit element having an assigned first data link to the second
composite circuit element for performance of a first data operation or an assigned second data link to the third composite
circuit element for performance of the first data operation.
