Abstract: Example implementations relate to managing a resource of a network device. A resource of a network device may be assigned from a first tenant to a second tenant of the network device. Resources of the network device may include an assignment right, an access right, and a configuration right, By assigning the resource to the second tenant, the second tenant may be granted an access right to the assigned resource. Responsive to the assignment of the resource, an access right to the assigned resource may be removed from the first tenant such that the first tenant is isolated from the resource.

Abstract: An integrated circuit applied in a deep neural network is disclosed. The integrated circuit comprises at least one processor, a first internal memory, a second internal memory, at least one MAC circuit, a compressor and a decompressor. The processor performs a cuboid convolution over decompression data for each cuboid of an input image fed to any one of multiple convolution layers. The MAC circuit performs multiplication and accumulation operations associated with the cuboid convolution to output a convoluted cuboid. The compressor compresses the convoluted cuboid into one compressed segment and store it in the second internal memory. The decompressor decompresses data from the second internal memory segment by segment to store the decompression data in the first internal memory. The input image is horizontally divided into multiple cuboids with an overlap of at least one row for each channel between any two adjacent cuboids.
