Consequently, we decide to refactor PaddlePaddle step-by-step. First, refactor and replace Matrix/Vector to Tensor, a modern terminology in the deep learning system. Fortunately, we can learn from Majel how to define a Tensor.
To simplify heterogeneous resource allocation in any dimensions (1-9) and types (double, float, float16), Majel consists of several primitives such as `Dim`, `Place` and `Array`, all of them are standard C++ classes.
To simplify heterogeneous resource allocation in any dimensions (1-9) and types (double, float, float16), Majel consists of several primitives such as `Dim`, `Place` and `Array`, all of them are standard C++ class templates.
1.`Place`: memory location [i.e. CPU/GPU].
2.`Allocation`: heterogeneous resource allocator [i.e. 20MB in GPU].
