Abstract:
An accelerator manager manages multiple accelerators in multiple programmable devices. An accelerator cast out policy specifies criteria for casting out accelerators in the programmable devices. The accelerator manager monitors usage of the accelerators by one or more computer programs, and generates a historical log from the monitored usage. When the conditions in the historical log satisfy criteria in the accelerator cast out policy for casting out an accelerator, the accelerator manager casts out the accelerator, and updates a virtual function table to replace calls to the accelerator that was cast out with calls to the software library.

Claim (Index 1):
An apparatus comprising:\n at least one processor; a memory coupled to the at least one processor; a plurality of accelerators in a plurality of programmable devices coupled to the at least one processor; an accelerator cast out policy that specifies at least one criterion for casting out accelerators in the plurality of programmable devices; and an accelerator manager residing in the memory and coupled to the at least one processor, the accelerator manager monitoring usage of the plurality of accelerators by at least one computer program and generating from the monitored usage a historical log, and when conditions in the historical log satisfy the at least one criterion in the accelerator cast out policy, the accelerator manager casts out one of the plurality of accelerators from its corresponding programmable device.
