Claim 12:
13. A graphics processing system comprising:
a graphics processing unit comprising one or more multiprocessors having a single instruction multiple thread (SIMT) architecture, at least one of the one or more multiprocessors including a register file to store a plurality of different types of operands and a plurality of processing cores, including:
a first set of processing cores of a first type to perform multi-dimensional matrix operations on a first set of operands in a first set of registers of the register file, wherein the first set of processing cores of the first type includes circuitry to execute instructions to perform matrix operations on the first set of operands in the first set of registers of the register file and the first set of processing cores of the first type are associated with a first memory channel of a memory device coupled with the at least one of the one or more multiprocessors; and
a second set of processing cores of a second type, the second set of processing cores being different from the first set of processing cores, the second set of processing cores to perform general purpose graphics processing unit (GPGPU) operations on a second set of operands in a second set of registers of the register file, wherein the second set of processing cores of the second type are associated with a second memory channel of the memory device coupled with the at least one of the one or more multiprocessors, the second memory channel is distinct from the first memory channel, and the memory device is external to the at least one of the one or more multiprocessors.
