Abstract
Examples may include techniques to allocate physical accelerator resources from pools of accelerator resources. In particular, virtual computing devices can be composed from physical resources and physical accelerator resources dynamically allocated to the virtual computing devices. The present disclosure provides that physical accelerator resources can be dynamically allocated, or composed, to a virtual computing device despite not being physically coupled to other components in the virtual device.
