Abstract

In one embodiment, a graphics processing unit 170 may support a logical resource using a physical tile pool 350 for sparse data sets. The graphics processing unit 170 may allocate a physical memory allocation into a primary physical tile pool 350. The graphics processing unit 170 may define a mapping for a logical tile set 300 for a logical resource. The graphics processing unit 170 may selectively map a primary logical tile 320 of the logical tile set 300 to a primary physical tile 360 of the primary physical tile pool 350.
