Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Methods, systems, and computer readable media for preemptive context-switching of processes on an accelerated processing device are based upon a comparison of the running time of the process and a threshold time quanta. A method includes preempting a process running on an accelerated processing device based upon a running time of the process and a threshold time quanta.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method comprising: an accelerated processing device running a process enqueued by a central processing unit; setting a threshold time quanta; preempting the process running on the accelerated processing device based upon a running time of the process and the threshold time quanta, wherein the preempting comprises: the accelerated processing device detecting a timer expiration indicating that a running time of the process is equal to or greater than th…
