Motivation

Minerva's design goal is to offer users more flexibility and yet preserve the efficiency during runtime. Therefore, Minerva decides to provide the numpy-like NArray interface for user to write any kind of algorithm as they wish (hopefully). We directly map these NArray operators to efficient CPU and GPU kernels which meets the basic requirements of speed as many other tools outside did. But this is far from perfect. In fact, there are lots of parallelisms within the algorithm structure which a tool could utilize to further speed up the algorithm

Example of Parallelism
