Methods And Apparatus To Offload And Onload Workloads In An Edge Environment

Example methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture to offload and onload workloads in an edge environment are disclosed herein. Further examples and combinations thereof include the following: An apparatus includes an apparatus comprising a telemetry controller to determine that a workload is to be offloaded from a first resource to a second resource of a platform, and a scheduler to determine an instance of the workload that is compatible with the second resource, and schedule the workload to continue execution based on an exchange of a workload state from the first resource to the second resource, the workload state indicative of a previous thread executed at the first resource.

5 Independent Claims

  • 1. An apparatus comprising: a telemetry controller to determine that a workload is to be offloaded from a first resource to a second resource of a platform; and a scheduler to: determine an instance of the workload that is compatible with the second resource; and schedule the workload to continue execution based on an exchange of a workload state from the first resource to the second resource, the workload state indicative of a previous thread executed at the first resource.

  • 9. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed, cause a machine to at least: determine that a workload is to be offloaded from a first resource to a second resource; determine an instance of the workload that is compatible with the second resource; and schedule the workload to continue execution based on an exchange of a workload state from the first resource to the second resource, the workload state indicative of a previous thread executed at the first resource.

  • 17. A method comprising: determining that a workload is to be offloaded from a first resource to a second resource; determining an instance of the workload that is compatible with the second resource; and scheduling the workload to continue execution based on an exchange of a workload state from the first resource to the second resource, the workload state indicative of a previous thread executed at the first resource.

  • 25. An apparatus to distribute a workload at an edge platform, the apparatus comprising: means for determining to determine that the workload is to be offloaded from a first resource to a second resource; and means for scheduling to: determine an instance of the workload that is compatible with the second resource; and schedule the workload to continue execution based on an exchange of a workload state from the first resource to the second resource, the workload state indicative of a previous thread executed at the first resource.
