DESCRIPTION:Modern computers are collections of heterogenous components\, i
 ncluding GPUs\, TPUs\, NPUs\, FPGAs and other devices that carry out compu
 ting tasks but which are not the central CPU. We are proposing novel metho
 ds of program compilation\, transformation and scheduling that take advant
 age of the entire system so that computation takes place in the most appro
 priate place at the most propitious time. Using LLVM IR\, optimizers\, and
  a performance aware scheduler\, we can maximize utilization while reducin
 g execution times for arbitrary workloads\, freeing developers from treati
 ng modern computers as if they were fixed function platforms. This researc
 h has applications in high performance computing\, embedded systems and se
 curity due to the centrality of run time program transformation in our sys
 tem. We present our results thus far from work on FreeBSD CURRENT\, includ
 ing updates to both the performance monitoring system (hwpmc) and a new sc
 heduler based on performance counters.
