Computing device, operation method thereof, and system on chip with dynamic arithmetic unit allocation between deep learning accelerator and vector processor

Abstract

A computing device, an operation method of the computing device, and a system on chip are provided. The computing device includes an operator and a resource allocation manager. The operator includes multiple arithmetic units. The resource allocation manager is coupled to the operator and allocates the arithmetic units to a deep learning accelerator and a vector processor for use according to an amount of calculation of the deep learning accelerator and an amount of calculation of the vector processor. The operator receives a first operation request and a second operation request from the deep learning accelerator and the vector processor respectively, uses a first arithmetic unit group of the arithmetic units to perform a calculation of the first operation request, and uses a second arithmetic unit group of the arithmetic units to perform a calculation of the second operation request according to an allocation result.
