Abstract
Examples described herein relate to a graphics processing apparatus that includes a memory device and a graphics processing unit (GPU). In some examples, the GPU is configured to execute a shader program that is to identify at least two code blocks that are independent from each other and cause execution of an unexecuted independent code block with available data based on use of a scoreboard to track data availability for independent code blocks. In some examples, execution of the shader program is to cause the GPU to select a first code block identifier for tracking completion of a dependency of the first independent code block. In some examples, execution of the shader program is to cause the GPU to identify an offset to a first instruction position in a sequence of instructions of the first independent code block in an instruction queue.
