Abstract
Acceleration-ready program development includes providing a software library having a plurality of functions having compute identifiers. The software library is associated with a hardware library including one or more hardware accelerated functions. The hardware accelerated functions are associated with the compute identifiers. Each hardware accelerated function is a functional equivalent of a function of the software library having the same compute identifier. A hybrid executor layer is provided that, when executed by a data processing system with an acceleration-ready computer program built using the software library, is configured to initiate execution of a selected function of the acceleration-ready computer program using a processor of the data processing system or invoke a hardware accelerated function having a compute identifier matching the compute identifier of the selected function based on comparing acceleration criteria with acceleration rules.
