Abstract

See full text

An example method includes, during execution of a software application in a computing system comprising a plurality of processing units, identifying platform-independent instructions that are configured to perform at least one computational task, wherein the plurality of processing units comprises a heterogeneous group, and wherein the platform-independent instructions have a format that is not specific to any particular processing unit in the plurality of processing units, determining one or more scheduling criteria that are associated with the platform-independent instructions, and selecting, from the heterogeneous group of processing units and based on the scheduling criteria, a processing unit to perform the at least one computational task. The example method further includes converting the platform-independent instructions into platform-dependent instructions, wherein the platform-dependent instructions have a format that is specific to the selected processing unit, and executing, by the selected processing unit, the platform-dependent instructions to perform the at least one computational task.
