Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer readable media for preemptive context-switching of processes on an accelerated processing device are based upon a comparison of the running time of the process and a threshold time quanta. A method includes preempting a process running on an accelerated processing device based upon a running time of the process and a threshold time quanta.
