Abstract
Described herein are methods, systems, and apparatuses to utilize a matrix operation by accessing each of the operation's matrix operands via a respective single memory handle. This use of a single memory handle for each matrix operand eliminates significant overhead in memory allocation, data tracking, and subroutine complexity present in prior art solutions. The result of the matrix operation can also be accessible via a single memory handle identifying the matrix elements of the result.
