Abstract
Features are disclosed for transferring speech recognition workloads between pooled execution resources. For example, various parts of an automatic speech recognition engine may be implemented by various pools of servers. Servers in a speech recognition pool may explore a plurality of paths in a graph to find the path that best matches an utterance. A set of active nodes comprising the last node explored in each path may be transferred between servers in the pool depending on resource availability at each server. A history of nodes or arcs traversed in each path may be maintained by a separate pool of history servers, and used to generate text corresponding to the path identified as the best match by the speech recognition servers.
