Abstract
A processor includes a task scheduling unit and a compute unit coupled to the task scheduling unit. The task scheduling unit performs a task dependency assessment of a task dependency graph and task data requirements that correspond to each task of the plurality of tasks. Based on the task dependency assessment, the task scheduling unit schedules a first task of the plurality of tasks and a second proxy object of a plurality of proxy objects specified by the task data requirements such that a memory transfer of the second proxy object of the plurality of proxy objects occurs while the first task is being executed.
