Abstract
Examples of techniques for utilizing a field programmable device binary to perform a workload are disclosed. In one example implementation according to aspects of the present disclosure, a computer-implemented method may include: calling an application program interface to perform a workload; determining, by a processing device, using dynamic characteristics of the workload and a workload environment, whether the workload should be processed by a field programmable device or a software library running on the general purpose processing device; responsive to determining to process the job by the field programmable device, deploying the job to the field programmable device; and responsive to determining to process the job by a software library running on the general purpose processing device, deploying the job to the software library.
