Abstract: Footprints, or resource allocations, of waves within resources that are shared by processor cores in a multithreaded processor are measured concurrently with the waves executing on the processor cores. The footprints are averaged over a time interval. A number of waves are spawned and dispatched for execution in the multithreaded processor based on the average footprint. In some cases, the waves are spawned at a rate that is determined based on the average value of the footprints of waves within the resources. The rate of spawning waves is modified in response to a change in the average value of the footprints of the waves within the resources.

Abstract: Embodiments include methods, systems and computer readable media configured to execute a first kernel (e.g. compute or graphics kernel) with reduced intermediate state storage resource requirements. These include executing a first and second (e.g. prefetch) kernel on a data-parallel processor, such that the second kernel begins executing before the first kernel. The second kernel performs memory operations that are based upon at least a subset of memory operations in the first kernel.

Abstract translation: 实施例包括被配置为执行具有减少的中间状态存储资源需求的第一内核（例如计算或图形内核）的方法，系统和计算机可读介质。 这些包括在数据并行处理器上执行第一和第二（例如预取）内核，使得第二内核在第一内核之前开始执行。 第二个内核执行基于第一个内核中至少一个内存操作子集的内存操作。
