Thank you all for this. Scheduling on GPUs is a topic in the dark for me, to be discovered

GPU "threads" aren't exactly CPU threads, and GPU "cores" aren't really CPU cores. It's better to think of threads as SIMD instructions and cores as ALUs.

GPU execution order is typically either "immediate mode" or "tile mode", where tiles are more common on mobile GPUs, but Nvidia has also used them.
