1. A computer-implemented method for selecting a first processor included in a plurality of processors to receive work related to a compute task, the method comprising: analyzing state data of each processor in the plurality of processors to identify one or more processors that have already been assigned one compute task and are eligible to receive work related to the one compute task; receiving, from each of the one or more processors identified as eligible, an availability value that indicates the capacity of the processor to receive new work; selecting a first processor to receive work related to the one compute task based on the availability values received from the one or more processors; and issuing, to the first processor via a cooperative thread array (CTA), the work related to the one compute task.
