Apparatus and method for data partition and allocation in heterogeneous multi-processor environment

摘要

An apparatus for data processing in a heterogeneous multi-processor environment are provided. The apparatus including an analysis unit configured to analyze 1) operations to be run in connection with data processing and 2) types and a number of processors available for the data processing, a partition unit configured to dynamically partition data into a plurality of data regions having different sizes based on the analyzed operations and operation-specific processor priority information, which is stored in advance of running the operations, and a scheduling unit configured to perform scheduling by allocating operations to be run in the data regions between the available processors.
