Control speculation in dataflow graphs

Abstract:

Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for technology that determines that a control loop is to be executed for an unspecified number of iterations and automatically forces the control loop to be executed for a fixed number of iterations in addition to the unspecified number of iterations, where execution of the control loop for the fixed number of iterations is conducted in parallel. In one example, the technology also removes one or more dataflow tokens associated with the execution of the control loop for the fixed number of iterations.
