Abstract
A method can include obtaining information on at least one of the following: resource occupation of a reconfigurable functional unit associated with hardware accelerator resources or GPP resources, power consumption of a hardware accelerator associated with hardware accelerator resources, and power consumption of a server associated with GPP resources. The method can also include performing processing on the reconfigurable functional unit based on the obtained information, the processing including at least one of configuration, reconfiguration, and migration. The method and apparatus of certain embodiments may increase efficiency of resource management of the edge cloud, lower system energy consumption, and/or enable more efficient virtualization mechanisms for hardware accelerator resources.
