  • Patent number: 12380060
    Abstract: A method for reducing latency and increasing throughput in a reconfigurable computing system includes receiving a compute graph for execution on a reconfigurable dataflow processor comprising a grid of compute units and grid of memory units interconnected with a switching array. The compute graph includes a node specifying an operation on a tensor. The node may be split into multiple nodes that each specify the operation on a distinctive portion of the tensor to produce a first modified compute graph. The first modified compute graph may be executed. In addition, the multiple nodes may be within a single meta-pipeline stage and may be processed in parallel. Furthermore, the compute graph may further comprise a separate node for gathering the distinctive portions of the tensor into a complete tensor, to produce a second modified compute graph.
