ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides for creating and employing code and data partitions in a heterogeneous environment. This is achieved by separating source code and data into at least two partitioned sections and at least one unpartitioned section. Generally, a partitioned section is targeted for execution on an independent memory device, such as an attached processor unit. Then, at least two overlay sections are generated from at least one partition section. The plurality of partition sections are pre-bound to each other. A root module is also created, associated with both the pre-bound plurality of partitions and the overlay sections. The root module is employable to exchange the at least two overlay sections between the first and second execution environments. The pre-bound plurality of partition sections are then bound to the at least one unpartitioned section. The binding produces an integrated executable.
