Abstract

Execution of tasks on accelerator units is managed. The managing includes multi-level grouping of tasks into groups based on defined criteria, including start time of tasks and/or deadline of tasks. The task groups and possibly individual tasks are mapped to accelerator units to be executed. During execution, redistribution of a task group and/or an individual task may occur to optimize a defined energy profile.
