 Implement a Customized Runtime
 ==============================
 
-In this section, we will implement a customized TVM runtime step-by-step and register it to TVM runtime modules. The customized runtime should be located at ``src/runtime/contrib/<your-runtime-name>/``. In our example, we name our runtime "example_ext_runtime" and put it under `/src/runtime/contrib/example_ext_runtime/ <https://github.com/apache/incubator-tvm/blob/master/src/runtime/contrib/example_ext_runtime/example_ext_runtime.cc>`_. Feel free to check this file for a complete implementation.

 Again, we first define a customized runtime class as follows. The class has to be derived from TVM ``ModuleNode`` in order to be compatible with other TVM runtime modules.
