IDENTIFYING DEPENDENCIES IN A CONTROL SEQUENCE FOR EXECUTION ON A HARDWARE ACCELERATOR

Abstract:

Provided are embodiments for a computer-implemented method, system and computer program product for identifying dependencies in a control sequence. Embodiments include receiving a control block that comprises a first error dependency (EDEP) level, maintaining the first EDEP level, and determining whether the received control block was successfully executed. Embodiments also include receiving a subsequent control block that comprises a second EDEP level, comparing the first EDEP level and the second EDEP level, and providing the subsequent control block for execution based at least in part on the successful execution of the received control block, and on the second EDEP level being less than or equal to the first EDEP level.
