CogniServe: Heterogeneous Server Architecture for Large-Scale Recognition

As smart mobile devices become pervasive, vendors are offering rich features supported by cloud-based servers to enhance the user experience. Such servers implement large-scale computing environments, where target data is compared to a massive preloaded database. CogniServe is a highly efficient recognition server for large-scale recognition that employs a heterogeneous architecture to provide low-power, high-throughput cores, along with application-specific accelerators.
