Abstract

Described herein are systems and methods to process efficiently, according to a certain order, a plurality of data sets arranged in data blocks. In one embodiment, a first compute element receives from another compute element a first set of instructions that determine an order in which a plurality of data sets are to be processed as part of a processing task. Relevant data sets are then streamed into a cache memory associated with the first compute element, but the order of streaming is not by order of storage but rather by the order conveyed in the first set of instructions.
