Computer architecture based on program/workload profiling

Abstract:

Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for determining an appropriate FPGA for a particular computer program. An embodiment operates by a central processing unit's counter identifying a plurality of workload properties in processing a computer program, wherein the central processing unit is part of a first computer architecture. The central processing unit then sends the workload properties to a controller trained to identify a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) module based on the plurality of workload properties. The central processing unit thereafter receives a recommended FPGA module from the controller and implements the recommended FPGA module in a computer architecture for processing the computer program, whereby the second computer architecture is able to perform the computer program more efficiently than the first computer architecture.
