The Barbeque Run-Time Resource Manager Open-Source Project (BOSP)

The Barbeque Run-Time Resource Manager (BarbequeRTRM) is a framework being developed at HEAPLab, Politecnico di Milano The project has been partially funded by several European Community research projects:

• FP7 2PARMA

• FP7 HARPA

• FP7 CONTREX

• H2020 MANGO

• H2020 RECIPE

The BarbequeRTRM is a modular and extensible run-time resource manager, to manage the allocation of computing resources (e.g, CPU, GPU, memory, HW accelerators, etc…) to multiple concurrent applications. Its modular design allows the developers to add custom resource allocation policies, according to specific use-cases and target platforms.
