Zusammenfassung:A method for computing in a thread-based environment provides manipulating an execution mask to enable and disable threads when executing multiple conditional function clauses for process instructions. Execution lanes are controlled based on execution participation for the process instructions for reducing resource consumption. Execution of particular one or more schedulable structures that include multiple process instructions are skipped based on the execution mask and activating instructions.
