Abstract
A processing system includes at least one core, at least one accelerator function unit (AFU), a microcontroller, and a memory access unit. The AFU and the core share a plurality of virtual addresses to access a memory. The microcontroller is coupled between the core and the AFU. The core develops and stores a task in one of the virtual addresses. The microcontroller analyzes the task and dispatches the task to the AFU. The AFU accesses the virtual address indicating where the task is stored through the memory access unit to executes the task.
