  • Publication number: 20240012690
    Abstract: An electronic device and method for partitioning an accelerator and scheduling batches are disclosed. An electronic device includes one or more processors, and a memory storing instructions configured to cause the one or more processors to, for a first partitioning of an accelerator into partitions of different sizes, based on resource utilization of the partitions batch of different sizes input to the partition, determine correspondences between the sizes of the batches and the sizes of the partitions in the first partitioning, determine numbers of partitions for the respective determined sizes of the partitions based on the correspondences between the sizes of the batches and the sizes of the partitions in the first partitioning, and partition the accelerator into a second partitioning based on the determined numbers of the respective sizes of the partitions.

  • Patent number: 9477526
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product are provided for providing prioritized access for multithreaded processing. The method includes the steps of allocating threads to process a workload and assigning a set of priority tokens to at least a portion of the threads. Access to a resource, by each one of the threads, is based on the priority token assigned to the thread and the threads are executed by a multithreaded processor to process the workload.
