Abstract
Techniques for operating a computing system to perform neural network operations are disclosed. In one example, a method comprises receiving a neural network model, determining a sequence of neural network operations based on data dependency in the neural network model, and determining a set of instructions to map the sequence of neural network operations to the processing resources of the neural network processor. The method further comprises determining, based on a set of memory access operations included in the set of instructions, a first set of memory references associated with a first location of an external memory to store the input data and a second set of memory references associated with a second location of the external memory to store the output data, and generating an instruction file including the set of instructions, the first set of memory references and the second set of memory references.
