METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PREDICTING KERNEL TUNING PARAMETERS

Abstract:

A processing device, which improves processing performance, is provided which comprises memory configured to store data and a processor, in communication with the memory. The processor is configured to receive tuning parameters, each having a numeric value, for executing a portion of a program on an identified hardware device and convert the numeric values of the tuning parameters to words. The processor is also configured to predict, using one or more machine language learning algorithms, which combination of the words to execute the portion of the program on the identified hardware device based on performance efficiency and convert the predicted combination of the words to corresponding numeric values for executing the portion of the program on the identified hardware device.
