Abstract
Apparatuses, methods and storage medium associated with embedded computing, are disclosed herein. In embodiments, an embedded computing platform includes a plurality of system-on-chips (SoCs) forming a local compute cluster; and an orchestrator disposed on one of the SoCs arranged to orchestrate fail-safe operations, in response to a reported unrecoverable failure requiring shut down or partial disabling of one of the SoCs, to consolidate execution of critical workloads on one or more of remaining fully or partially operational ones of the SoCs. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.
