Increasingly communication software is being offloaded to specialized hardware accelerators and into the OS kernel. In most cases this is because offloading is supposed to improve network utilization and reduce costs. However, designing good offloads is challenging, often requiring architectural changes to both software and hardware. But there is little agreement on the form of these changes, and this both increases the true cost of building and deploying offloads and the complexity of doing research on accelerators. This Dagstuhl Seminar aimed to provide a forum to talk about experiences with building and deploying accelerator platforms to address this concern.
