Abstract
Methods for repeated execution of program code by an execution engine are provided. In order to execute large programs, the instruction buffer of an execution engine may be refilled may times with program code to complete one execution of the program. At completion of program execution, the program code needed to begin re-execution of the program is no longer in the instruction buffer. A runtime driver program can load instructions into the instruction buffer, or can cause instructions to be loaded. Once the instructions are loaded, the execution engine may be able to re-execute the instructions without needing further assistance from the runtime driver.
