Abstract
A method for implementing multi context execution on a video processor having a scalar execution unit and a vector execution unit. The method includes allocating a first task to a vector execution unit and allocating a second task to the vector execution unit. The first task is from a first context in the second task is from a second context. The method further includes interleaving a plurality of work packages comprising the first task and the second task to generate a combined work package stream. The combined work package stream is subsequently executed on the vector execution unit.
