This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18968479 titled 'BUILDING AND SCHEDULING TASKS FOR PARALLEL PROCESSING
Original Abstract Submitted
Task building logic builds a plurality of tasks each comprising a group of rays. When a new ray is received into ray storage, if an existing task exists for the new ray, the new ray is added to an existing respective list. The task building logic indicates when any of the tasks is ready for scheduling, and task scheduling logic identifies a task ready for scheduling based on the indication from the task building logic, and in response traverses the respective list in order to schedule at least some of the rays of the respective task for processing in parallel.
