In this paper the underlying design method for massively parallel processor arrays allows to exploit parallelism in a broader range because of not considering the I/O-variables during the design process of a full size array. As a consequence of this approach a reallocation of the I/O-ports of the I/O-variables at the boundary processors of the processor array is necessary. Algorithms will be described for the reallocation of the I/O-ports at the array boundaries leading to a minimal additional latency and taking systolic constraints into account. Integer linear programming is used to solve the arising optimization problems.
