Abstract
An apparatus for hardware acceleration for use in operating a computational network is configured for determining that a loop structure including one or more loops is to be executed by a first processor. Each of the one or more loops includes a set of operations. The loop structure may be configured as a nested loop, a cascaded or a combination of the two. A second processor may be configured to decouple overhead operations of the loop structure from compute operations of the loop structure. The apparatus accelerates processing of the loop structure by simultaneously processing the overhead operations using the second processor separately from processing the compute operations based on the configuration to operate the computational network.
