Inventors include Mantor, Michael; Brennan, Christopher J.; Chajdas, Matthaeus G.; Baumeister, Dominik Joerg Number; Wildgrube, Fabian Robert Sebastian; Haehnle, Nicolai; and Ramsey, Randy.
The application for the patent was published on July 10, 2026, under issue no. 28/2026.
Abstract: Workgroup processors associated with a shader program interface are provided with local launchers capable of launching shader threads partially or completely independently from the shader program interface. The local launchers maintain local queues separately from the shader program interface. The local launchers allocate resources for shader thread execution at an associated workgroup processor either directly or through a request to the shader program interface. In some implementations, the shader program interface leases resources to the local launcher in response to a request for resources and terminates the lease when the local launcher notifies the shader program interface that execution of the shader thread is complete.
