Resource management device, method, and computer program for resource management and matching output timings of sequential processes across hardware

A method for resource management, comprising:

• determining allocation of a resource of a first processor to sequential processes, wherein:
• the first processor comprises a plurality of first operating circuits,
• a second processor underperforms the first processor,
• the sequential processes have respective first output timings when the first processor executes the sequential processes and respective second output timings when the second processor executes the sequential processes, and
• the allocation is determined so that a sum of absolute values of differences is within a predetermined tolerance, each difference being between a respective first value and a respective second value, each first value being based on at least one of the first output timings, and each second value being based on at least one of the second output timings;
• and
• determining a number of the first operating circuits to be allocated to the sequential processes among the plurality of first operating circuits, the number being a minimized number such that, when the first processor executes the sequential processes using the minimized number of first operating circuits, each of the first output timings on which one of the first values is based is earlier than a corresponding one of the second output timings on which a corresponding one of the second values is based.

A non-transitory recording medium that stores a computer program for resource management, the computer program causing a computer to execute a process comprising:

• determining allocation of a resource of a first processor to-sequential processes, wherein:
• the first processor comprises a plurality of first operating circuits,
• a second processor underperforms the first processor,
• the sequential processes have respective first output timings when the first processor executes the sequential processes and respective second output timings when the second processor executes the sequential processes, and
• the allocation is determined so that a sum of absolute values of differences is within a predetermined tolerance, each difference being between a respective first value and a respective second value, each first value being based on at least one of the first output timings, and each second value being based on at least one of the second output timings;
• and
• determining a number of the first operating circuits to be allocated to the sequential processes among the plurality of first operating circuits, the number being a minimized number such that, when the first processor executes the sequential processes using the minimized number of first operating circuits, each of the first output timings on which one of the first values is based is earlier than a corresponding one of the second output timings on which a corresponding one of the second values is based.
