Abstract

Hardware acceleration for a kernel can include selecting, using a processor, a kernel, determining, using the processor, a clock frequency for the selected kernel, and programming, using the processor, a clock circuit to generate a clock signal having a clock frequency compatible with the clock frequency of the selected kernel. Using the processor, the selected kernel can be implemented as a kernel circuit within a region of programmable circuitry. The kernel circuit can be clocked using the clock signal from the clock circuit having the compatible clock frequency.
