Abstract

In an embodiment a method for managing a convolutional calculation carried out by a calculation unit adapted to calculate output data on output channels from convolution kernels applied to input data blocks on at least one input channel, wherein calculations on each input data block correspond respectively to an output datum on an output channel, and wherein the calculations with each convolution kernel correspond to the output data on each output channel respectively includes identifying a size of a memory location available in a temporary working memory of the calculation unit, pre-loading in the temporary working memory a maximum number of convolution kernels storable at the size of the memory; and controlling the calculation unit to calculate a set of output data calculable from pre-loaded convolution kernels.
