METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR HARDWARE ACCELERATION IN HETEROGENEOUS DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING

摘要

In a distributed computing system comprising multiple processor types, a method of provisioning includes receiving a request from a client device for execution of a function. A first data structure identifies implementations of the function and compatible processor types for each implementation. A second data structure identifies available processors in the system. Compatible processor types matching available processors are candidates for execution of the function. A provisioning instruction is created for allocating resources for execution of the function.
