A proposal for optimal program placement in a mixed environment including quantum computers

Abstract

We have proposed environment-adaptive software that automatically converts code written by programmers for normal CPUs according to the deployment environment, enabling high performance operation. This paper targets automatic offloading to appropriate hardware in a mixed environment that contains normal CPUs, multi-core CPUs, FPGAs, GPUs, and quantum computers. We confirm how much the performance of normal CPUs can be achieved with each hardware, and based on cost performance, we determine the appropriate hardware for offloading and perform automatic offloading. We confirm that the proposed method can automatically offload by measuring the processing time using actual heterogeneous hardware.
