Abstract

A computer program product can include a non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a unified container. The unified container can include a header structure, wherein the header structure has a fixed length and specifies a number of section headers included in the unified container. The unified container can include a plurality of section headers equivalent to the number of section headers specified in the header structure. The unified container can include a plurality of data sections corresponding to the plurality of section headers on a one-to-one basis. The plurality of data sections includes a first data section including a hardware binary and a second data section including a software binary. The hardware binary and the software binary are configured to program a programmable integrated circuit. Each section header specifies a type of data stored in the corresponding data section and specifies a mapping for the corresponding data section.
