context is definitely overloaded (can also mean "a collection of state related 
to a request" e.g. when serving model inference requests).

I do think there are a couple of ways device could be confusing:
 - for µTVM, a new user could consider the whole PCB could be a "device," even 
though in reality the CPU and accelerator would be separate devices
 - perhaps on mobile this would also be true?

I am not really sure if there is a word that would be both concise and not 
confusing here, though. Executor? Compute Unit?

anyway, is the plan to propose the DLPack change first, then the TVM change to 
follow?
