Data transfers impose a major bottleneck in heterogenous system architectures. As a mitigation strategy, compute resources can be introduced in places where data occurs naturally. The increased diversity of compute resources in turn affects programming models and practicalities of software development for near-data compute kernels and raises the question of how those resources can be made accessible to users and applications.
