Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for providing software code capable of automated runtime negotiation of computation block execution between different computers. In one aspect, a method includes storing, on each of multiple devices, code blocks for a software application that performs a particular set of functions and assigning at runtime of the software application which of the devices is to execute each of the code blocks. Each of the code blocks is executed on the assigned devices and data is communicated between the assigned devices to facilitate executing different code blocks on different devices.
