System and method for reallocation of gpu power

A method for reallocating GPU power of a gaming console to non-gaming purposes, comprising:

• defining at least one kernel function for matrix multiplication;
• passing three global memory pointers (A, B, and C) and an integer (N) as input arguments to the at least one kernel function, wherein the arguments represent two matrices A and B being multiplied and their dimensions;
• calculating a product of the two matrices and storing a result in an output matrix C;
• generating a control command queue based on the output matrix C;
• executing the control command queue to allocate memory on the GPU for the input and output matrices;
• copying the input matrices A and B from a gaming console memory to GPU memory;
• and
• executing a kernel on the GPU specifying a global work size for the kernel as a two-dimensional array.

A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions, that when read by a processor, cause the processor to perform:

• defining at least one kernel function for matrix multiplication;
• passing three global memory pointers (A, B, and C) and an integer (N) as input arguments to the at least one kernel function, wherein the arguments represent two matrices A and B being multiplied and their dimensions;
• calculating a product of the two matrices and storing a result in an output matrix C;
• generating a control command queue based on the output matrix C;
• executing the control command queue to allocate memory on the GPU for the input and output matrices;
• copying the input matrices A and B from a gaming console memory to GPU memory;
• and
• executing a kernel on the GPU specifying a global work size for the kernel as a two-dimensional array.
