Abstract
In one example, an apparatus comprises: a first local memory, a computation engine configured to generate local data and to store the local data at the first local memory, and a controller. The apparatus is coupled with a host processor and a second device via an interconnect, the second device comprising a second local memory, the host processor hosting an application. The controller is configured to: receive, from the second device, a first message indicating that first data is stored in the second local memory; based on the first message: fetch the first data from the second local memory via the interconnect; control the computation engine to perform a computation operation on the first data to generate second data to support the application hosted by the host processor; and transmit, to the second device, a second message indicating that the second data is stored in the first local memory.
