Abstract
Techniques to dispatch threads of a graphics kernel for execution to increase the interval between dependent threads and the associated are disclosed. The dispatch interval may be increased by dispatching associated threads, followed by threads without any dependencies, followed by threads dependent on the earlier dispatched associated threads. As such, the interval between dependent threads and their associated threads can be increased, leading to increased parallelism.
