Abstract

A system, method, and computer program product are provided for assigning elements of a matrix to processing threads. In use, a matrix is received to be processed by a parallel processing architecture. Such parallel processing architecture includes a plurality of processors each capable of processing a plurality of threads. Elements of the matrix are assigned to each of the threads for processing, utilizing an algorithm that increases a contiguousness of the elements being processed by each thread.
