Abstract
The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for optimizing execution of kernels. Embodiments of the invention include an optimization framework for optimizing runtime execution of kernels. During compilation, information about the execution properties of a kernel are identified and stored alongside the executable code for the kernel. At runtime, calling contexts access the information. The calling contexts interpret the information and optimize kernel execution based on the interpretation.
