Disclosed herein is a heterogeneous system based on unified virtual memory. The heterogeneous system based on unified virtual memory may include a host for compiling a kernel program, which is source code of a user application, in a binary form and delivering the compiled kernel program to a heterogenous system architecture device, the heterogenous system architecture device for processing operation of the kernel program delivered from the host in parallel using two or more different types of processing elements, and unified virtual memory shared between the host and the heterogenous system architecture device.
