Event assignment for synchronization of concurrent execution engines

A method comprising:

• obtaining a description of a plurality of operations to be performed by multiple execution engines of an integrated circuit device, wherein the plurality of operations are connected through a plurality of edges;
• generating a dependency vector for each operation of the plurality of operations, wherein the dependency vector of a corresponding operation includes a set of values that are calculated based on the set of values of one or more dependency vectors calculated for one or more immediately preceding operations of the plurality of operations;
• and
• assigning, for each edge of one or more of the plurality of edges, an event register of a plurality of event registers in the integrated circuit device to the corresponding edge based on the dependency vector generated for a start operation associated with the corresponding edge.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored therein instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to execute a compiler, the compiler performing operations including:

• obtaining a description of a plurality of operations to be performed by multiple execution engines of an integrated circuit device, wherein the plurality of operations are connected through a plurality of edges;
• generating a dependency vector for each operation of the plurality of operations, wherein the dependency vector of a corresponding operation includes a set of values that are calculated based on the set of values of one or more dependency vectors calculated for one or more immediately preceding operations of the plurality of operations;
• and
• assigning, for each edge of one or more of the plurality of edges, an event register of a plurality of event registers to the corresponding edge based on the dependency vector generated for a start operation associated with the corresponding edge.
