Abstract
Apparatuses including general-purpose graphics processing units and graphics multiprocessors that exploit queues or transitional buffers for improved low-latency high-bandwidth on-die data retrieval are disclosed. In one embodiment, a graphics multiprocessor includes at least one compute engine to provide a request, a queue or transitional buffer, and logic coupled to the queue or transitional buffer. The logic is configured to cause a request to be transferred to a queue or transitional buffer for temporary storage without processing the request and to determine whether the queue or transitional buffer has a predetermined amount of storage capacity.
