Abstract
Systems, apparatuses, and methods for updating and optimizing task scheduling policies are disclosed. A new policy is obtained and updated at runtime by a client based on a server analyzing a wide spectrum of telemetry data on a relatively long time scale. Instead of only looking at the telemetry data from the client's execution of tasks for the previous frame, the server analyzes the execution times of tasks for multiple previous frames so as to determine a more optimal policy for subsequent frames. This mechanism enables making a more informed task scheduling policy decision as well as customizing the policy per application, game, and user without requiring a driver update. Also, this mechanism facilitates improved load balancing across the various processing engines, each of which has their own task queues. The improved load balancing is achieved by analyzing the telemetry data including resource utilization statistics for the different processing engines.
