Zusammenfassung:In one embodiment, the present invention includes a cache, compute engines connected to the cache, and a way mask disposed between the cache and the compute engines. This way mask may be partitioned into ways. Some of the ways may be dedicated to only one of the compute engines and other ways can be shared among more than one of the compute engines. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
