Abstract
A method for accelerating processing of program code in a heterogeneous system may be provided. It may include identifying at runtime a code region having an acceleration potential, creating a dependency graph of the program code, expanding the dependency graph based on a first set of predefined rules to generate variants of the code region, and determining segments within the variants based on a second set of predefined rules. The segments may be dedicated and assigned and compiled for use to/by a specific execution unit such that a cost function is minimized.
