Abstract: Techniques to control arrangement of items in a user interface is described. In one or more implementations, intuitive rearrangement of items in a user interface is caused by a computing device. A priority ordering of items, one to another, is determined that is specified for display of the items in a first layout in a user interface of the computing device. The items are assigned into respective ones of a plurality of groups that together compose one or more linear arrangements of the groups. Arrangement of the items is controlled by the computing device for display in a second layout in the user interface that is different from the first layout by an amount of display area available in the user interface along one or more dimensions.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide techniques enable a compute unit to continue processing operations when all dispatched threads are blocked. One embodiment provides for a graphics processor comprising a compute unit to execute multiple concurrent threads and a memory coupled with and on a same package as the compute unit. The memory can store thread state for a suspended thread and the compute unit can detect that multiple concurrent threads of the compute unit are blocked from execution. Upon detection, the compute unit can select a victim thread from the multiple concurrent threads, suspend the victim thread, store thread state of the victim thread to the memory, and select an additional thread to be executed. The compute unit can then replace the victim thread with an additional thread to be executed. The additional thread to be executed can be based on a blocking event for the additional thread.
