Summary:A methods and an apparatus may prioritize the processing of high priority and low priority contexts submitted to a processing unit through separate high priority and low priority context submission ports. According to one embodiment, submission of a context to the low priority port causes contexts in progress to lose preemption, whereas submission of a context to the high priority port causes contexts in progress to be paused. 방법 및 장치는 별도의 높은 우선순위 및 낮은 우선순위 컨텍스트 제출 포트들을 통해 처리 유닛에 제출된 높은 우선순위 및 낮은 우선순위 컨텍스트의 처리를 우선순위화할 수 있다. 일 실시예에 따르면, 낮은 우선순위 포트로의 컨텍스트의 제출은 진행 중인 컨텍스트가 선점권을 빼앗기게 하는 반면, 높은 우선순위 포트로의 컨텍스트의 제출은 진행 중인 컨텍스트가 일시정지하게 한다.
