Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An accelerator management device includes an accelerator link DB that stores an accelerator identifier in association with an application identifier. The accelerator management device includes the accelerator mounting information DB that stores the accelerator identifier of an accelerator mounted in a slot in association with each slot identifier used to identify each slot of an expansion I/O box. The accelerator management device specifies an accelerator identifier corresponding to an application by referring to the accelerator link DB when an execution request of an application is received from a host. The accelerator management device specifies a slot identifier corresponding to the specified accelerator identifier by referring to the accelerator mounting information DB. The accelerator management device assigns the slot that is identified through the slot identifier which is specified by the second specifying unit to the host.
