Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed to steal work in heterogeneous computing systems. An apparatus includes load balancing circuitry to obtain tasks from a workload by encoding minimum and maximum index ranges of a data parallel operation, allocate a first task from the workload to a first work queue based on a first capability of first computation circuitry, the first computation circuitry to process the first task in the first work queue, and allocate a second task from the workload to a second work queue, second computation circuitry to process the second task in the second work queue. The apparatus further includes first work stealer logic to steal the second task from the second work queue using an atomic operation to access the second work queue.

Abstract: A work stealer apparatus includes a determination module. The determination module is to determine to steal work from a first hardware computation unit of a first type for a second hardware computation unit of a second type that is different than the first type. The work is to be queued in a first work queue, which is to correspond to the first hardware computation unit, and which is to be stored in a shared memory that is to be shared by the first and second hardware computation units. A synchronized work stealer module is to steal the work through a synchronized memory access to the first work queue. The synchronized memory access is to be synchronized relative to memory accesses to the first work queue from the first hardware computation unit.

Abstract: In a method of dynamically changing a computation performed by an application executing on a digital computer, the application is characterized in terms of slack and workloads of underlying components of the application and of interactions therebetween. The application is enhanced dynamically based on predictive models generated from the characterizing action and on the dynamic availability of computational resources. Strictness of data consistency constraints is adjusted dynamically between threads in the application, thereby providing runtime control mechanisms for dynamically enhancing the application.
