Dynamic allocation of executable code for multi-architecture heterogeneous computing

A method for executing a software program, comprising:

• in an intermediate representation of the software program, where the intermediate representation comprises a plurality of blocks, each associated with one of a plurality of execution blocks of the software program and comprising a set of intermediate instructions, identifying a calling block and a target block, where the calling block comprises at least one control-flow intermediate instruction to execute at least one target intermediate instruction of the target block;
• generating a target set of executable instructions using the target block;
• generating a calling set of executable instructions using the calling block and using at least one computer control instruction for invoking the target set of executable instructions, when the calling set of executable instructions is executed by a calling processing unit of a plurality of processing units and the target set of executable instructions is executed by a target processing unit of the plurality of processing units;
• configuring the calling processing unit for executing the calling set of executable instructions;
• and
• configuring the target processing unit for executing the target set of executable instructions.

A software program product for executing a software program, comprising:

• a non-transitory computer readable storage medium;
• first program instructions for:
• in an intermediate representation of the software program, where the intermediate representation comprises a plurality of blocks, each associated with one of a plurality of execution blocks of the software program and comprising a set of intermediate instructions, identifying a calling block and a target block, where the calling block comprises at least one control-flow intermediate instruction to execute at least one target intermediate instruction of the target block;
• second program instructions for generating a target set of executable instructions using the target block;
• third program instructions for generating a calling set of executable instructions using the calling block and using at least one computer control instruction for invoking the target set of executable instructions, when the calling set of executable instructions is executed by a calling processing unit of a plurality of processing units and the target set of executable instructions is executed by a target processing unit of the plurality of processing units;
• fourth program instructions for configuring the calling processing unit for executing the calling set of executable instructions;
• and
• fifth program instructions for configuring the target processing unit for executing the target set of executable instructions;
• wherein the first, second, third, fourth and fifth program instructions are executed by at least one computerized processor from the non-transitory computer readable storage medium.
