Abstract
An apparatus includes a plurality of hardware engines and a scheduler circuit. The hardware engines may be configured to process a plurality of vectors using a plurality of operators. The scheduler circuit may be configured to (i) parse a directed acyclic graph into one or more of the operators, (ii) determine a readiness of each of the operators and (iii) schedule the one or more operators in at least one of the hardware engines based on the readiness. The scheduler circuit may be implemented solely in hardware.
