Abstract
Methods and systems for load balancing in a neural network system using metadata are disclosed. Any one or a combination of one or more kernels, one or more neurons, and one or more layers of the neural network system are tagged with metadata. A scheduler detects whether there are neurons that are available to execute. The scheduler uses the metadata to schedule and load balance computations across compute resources and available resources.
