Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Methods, articles of manufacture, and apparatus are disclosed to manage workload memory allocation. An example method includes identifying a primary memory and a secondary memory associated with a platform, the secondary memory having first performance metrics different from second performance metrics of the primary memory, identifying access metrics associated with a plurality of data elements invoked by a workload during execution on the platform, prioritizing a list of the plurality of data elements based on the access metrics associated with corresponding ones of the plurality of data elements, and reallocating a first one of the plurality of data elements from the primary memory to the secondary memory based on the priority of the first one of the plurality of memory elements.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A method to manage workload memory for data element utilization, comprising: identifying a primary memory and a secondary memory associated with a platform, the secondary memory having first performance metrics different from second performance metrics of the primary memory; identifying access metrics associated with a plurality of data elements invoked by a workload during execution on the platform; prioritizing a list of the plurality of data elements based on the access metrics associated with corresponding ones of the plurality of data elements; and reallocating a first one of the plurality of data elements from the primary memory to the secondary memory based on the priority of the first one of the plurality of memory elements.
