  • Publication number: 20230022294
    Abstract: A task scheduler is connected between a central processing unit (CPU) and each hardware accelerator. The task scheduler first obtains a target task (for example, obtains the target task from a memory), and obtains a dependency relationship between the target task and an associated task. When it is determined, based on the dependency relationship, that a first associated task (for example, a prerequisite for executing the target task is that both a task 1 and a task 2 are executed) in the associated task has been executed, it indicates that the target task meets an execution condition, and the task scheduler schedules related hardware accelerators to execute the target task. Based on a dependency relationship between tasks, the task scheduler schedules, through hardware scheduling, each hardware accelerator to execute each task, and delivery of each task is performed through direct hardware access.
