APPLICATION-BASED DATA TYPE SELECTION

Abstract:

Methods, Systems, and Apparatuses related to application-based data type selection are described. A processing device perform operations to monitor performance characteristics associated with various applications executed by a host computing device to determine that a threshold performance level has been reached or exceeded. Operations to convert a data type utilized by the various applications from a first format that supports arithmetic operations to a first level of precision to a second format that supports arithmetic operations to a second level of precision can be performed based, at least in part, on the determination.
