Abstract:
Accelerator functions are cascaded, such that a result of one accelerator function is directly forwarded to another accelerator function, bypassing the processor requesting the functions to be performed. The cascading may be provided during compilation of a program specifying the functions to be performed, but can be dynamically reversed during runtime of the program.
