Abstract: An apparatus to facilitate workload scheduling is disclosed. The apparatus includes one or more clients, one or more processing units to processes workloads received from the one or more clients, including hardware resources and scheduling logic to schedule direct access of the hardware resources to the one or more clients to process the workloads.

Abstract: An embodiment of a graphics apparatus may include a focus identifier to identify a focus area, and a color compressor to selectively compress color data based on the identified focus area. Another embodiment of a graphics apparatus may include a motion detector to detect motion of a real object, a motion predictor to predict a motion of the real object, and an object placer to place a virtual object relative to the real object based on the predicted motion of the real object. Another embodiment of a graphics apparatus may include a frame divider to divide a frame into viewports, a viewport prioritizer to prioritize the viewports, a renderer to render a viewport of the frame in order in accordance with the viewport priorities, and a viewport transmitter to transmit a completed rendered viewport. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for technology that activates a first context on a graphics processor and detects a context switch condition with respect to the first context. Additionally, a second context may be activated, in response to the context switch condition, on the graphics processor while the first context is active on the graphics processor. In one example, activating the second context includes adding a group identifier to a plurality of threads corresponding to the second context and launching the plurality of threads with the group identifier on the graphics processor.

Abstract: An apparatus and method are described for using a touch screen device to control an external display. For example, one embodiment of an apparatus comprises a touch screen to receive user touch input and display images; a processor communicatively coupled to the touch screen; a wireless session management module to establish and maintain a wireless display connection with an extended screen responsive to commands from the processor; and the processor to execute a process responsive to the user touch input to transform the touch screen or a portion thereof to a remote control touchpad device usable to provide control functions for content displayed on the extended screen.

Abstract: At least a method and a system are described for regulating a screen composer of a device based on one or more conditions. In a representative embodiment, the method comprises measuring a processor's load level, activity level, or usage in the device. The method further comprises comparing the load level to a first value to determine if a first condition is satisfied. The method further comprises comparing a screen update rate of screen composition tasks of the device to a second value when the first condition is satisfied, wherein the second comparing is used to determine if a second condition is satisfied. The method further comprises regulating the screen composition tasks of the device when said first condition and the second condition are both satisfied. In a representative embodiment, the system comprises a device such as a wireless smartphone.
