Abstract: Various embodiments may include methods executed by processors of computing devices for geometry based work execution prioritization. The processor may receive events, such as images. The processor may overlay a boundary shape on the event to identify discard regions of the event lying outside the boundary shape. The processor may identify work regions of the events lying within the working boundary shape. The devices may determine a cancellation likelihood for each of the identified work regions of the events. The processor may assign a trimming weight to each of the identified work regions based on the determined cancellation likelihoods. The processor may then add each of the identified work regions as a work item to an execution work list in an order based on the assigned trimming weights. The work items may be processed in order of trimming weight priority.

Abstract: Aspects include computing devices, systems, and methods for implementing scheduling and execution of lightweight kernels as simple tasks directly by a thread without setting up a task structure. A computing device may determine whether a task pointer in a task queue is a simple task pointer for the lightweight kernel. The computing device may schedule a first simple task for the lightweight kernel for execution by the thread. The computing device may retrieve, from an entry of a simple task table, a kernel pointer for the lightweight kernel. The entry in the simple task table may be associated with the simple task pointer. The computing device may directly execute the lightweight kernel as the simple task.

Abstract: A method and computing device, for enabling selective enforcement of complex task dependencies. The method and allows a computing device to determine whether to enforce task-dependencies based on programmer or end-user goals concerning efficiency and quality of runtime experience. A computing device may be configured to schedule executing a first task, identify an operation (e.g., a "+>" operation) of the first task as being selectively dependent on a second task finishing execution, and determining whether to enforce the dependency of the first task on the second task based on an evaluation of one or more enforcement conditions. If the enforcement conditions are not met, enforcing the dependency, executing the second task, and withholding execution of the first task until execution of the second task has finished. If the enforcement conditions are met, commencing execution of the first task prior to, or parallel to the second task finishing execution.

Abstract: Embodiments include computing devices, systems, and methods for task signaling on a computing device. Execution of a task by an initial thread on a critical path of execution may be interrupted to create at least one parallel task by the initial thread that can be executed in parallel with the task executed by the initial thread. An initial signal indicating the creation of the at least one parallel task to a relay thread may be sent by the initial thread. Execution of the task by the initial thread may resume before an acquisition of the at least one parallel task.
