Abstract
Devices and techniques for sharing thread memory in a barrel processor via scheduling are described herein. An apparatus includes a barrel processor, which includes thread scheduling circuitry, where the barrel processor is configured to perform operations through use of the thread scheduling circuitry, the operations including those to: place a thread to be scheduled in one of two groups: a first group and a second group, wherein the first group is associated with a first processor storage device, and the second group is associated with a second processor storage device; and schedule a current thread to place into a pipeline for the barrel processor, the scheduling performed by alternating between threads in the first group and threads in the second group.
