A system and method for efficient dynamic scheduling of tasks. A scheduler within an operating system assigns software threads of program code to computation units. A computation unit may be a microprocessor, a processor core, or a hardware thread in a multi-threaded core. The scheduler receives measured data values from performance monitoring hardware within a processor as the one or more processors execute the software threads. The scheduler may be configured to reassign a first thread assigned to a first computation unit coupled to a first shared resource to a second computation unit coupled to a second shared resource. The scheduler may perform this dynamic reassignment in response to determining from the measured data values a first measured value corresponding to the utilization of the first shared resource exceeds a predetermined threshold and a second measured value corresponding to the utilization of the second shared resource does not exceed the predetermined threshold.

One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a technique for dynamically scheduling and managing compute tasks with different execution priority levels. The scheduling circuitry organizes the compute tasks into groups based on priority levels. The compute tasks may then be selected for execution using different scheduling schemes, such as round-robin, priority, and partitioned priority. Each group is maintained as a linked list of pointers to compute tasks that are encoded as queue metadata (QMD) stored in memory. A QMD encapsulates the state needed to execute a compute task. When a task is selected for execution by the scheduling circuitry, the QMD is removed for a group and transferred to a table of active compute tasks. Compute tasks are then selected from the active task table for execution by a streaming multiprocessor.
