Abstract

A system, method, and computer program product for low-latency scheduling and launch of memory defined tasks. The method includes the steps of receiving a task metadata data structure to be stored in a memory associated with a processor, transmitting the task metadata data structure to a scheduling unit of the processor, storing the task metadata data structure in a cache unit included in the scheduling unit, and copying the task metadata data structure from the cache unit to the memory.
