Abstract

A system and method to hardware-accelerate finite state transducer libraries and their compilation toolchains. In an embodiment, a computer-implemented method for partitioning an UIMA-PEAR file into software-based and hardware-accelerated components may comprise creating a data-flow graph representation of the UIMA-PEAR-file, flattening hierarchies of the data-flow graph representation, and selecting the components to be hardware accelerated from the flattened hierarchies of the data-flow graph representation based on data dependencies of data types produced and consumed by each component of the flattened data-flow graph.
