Abstract
Methods and apparatus relating to scalar core integration in a graphics processor. In an example, an apparatus comprises a processor to receive a set of workload instructions for a graphics workload from a host complex, determine a first subset of operations in the set of operations that is suitable for execution by a scalar processor complex of the graphics processing device and a second subset of operations in the set of operations that is suitable for execution by a vector processor complex of the graphics processing device, assign the first subset of operations to the scalar processor complex for execution to generate a first set of outputs, assign the second subset of operations to the vector processor complex for execution to generate a second set of outputs. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.
