Abstract: Modern deep neural network (DNN) models have many layers with a single layer potentially involving large matrix multiplications. Such heavy calculation brings challenges to deploy such DNN models on a single edge device, which has relatively limited computation resources. Therefore, multiple and even heterogeneous edge devices may be required for applications with stringent latency requirements. Disclosed in the present patent documents are embodiments of a model scheduling framework that schedules multiple models on a heterogeneous platform. Multiple-model heterogeneous computing is partitioned into a neural computation optimizer (NCO) part and a neural computation accelerator (NCA) part. The migration, transition, or transformation of DNN models from cloud to edge is handled by the NCO, while the deployment of the transformed DNN models on the heterogeneous platform is handled by the NCA. Such a separation of implementation simplifies task execution and improves the flexibility for the overall framework.
