Abstract
A method of partitioning a software program, so that a main program may be executed on a first processor, and at least one designated function may be executed on a second processor. The subprogram to be executed by the second processor is selected from a main program associated with a first processor and identified globally to both processors. The subprogram is given a call from the main program that creates a software environment that is compatible to both processors. More specifically, the method entails creating an argument passing means, via the function call, so that relevant information about the subprogram parameters may be communicated to the second processor.
