Abstract
For certain traffic types, Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) can outperform Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) due to their ability to execute highly parallel and customizable computing tasks efficiently. Recognizing this potential, this submission proposes leveraging Segment Routing traffic engineering (SR-TE) to intelligently direct specific artificial intelligence (AI) workloads to either FPGAs or GPUs based on traffic type, thereby optimizing performance and resource utilization.
