    Abstract: Cloud-based real time rendering. For example, one embodiment of a system comprises: a first graphics processing node to perform a first set of graphics processing operations to render a graphics scene, the first set of graphics processing operations comprising ray-tracing independent operations; an interconnect or network interface coupling the first graphics processing node to a second graphics processing node; the second graphics processing node to receive an indication of a current view of a user of the first graphics processing node and to receive or construct a view-independent surface generated by view-independent ray traversal and intersection operations; the second graphics processing node to responsively perform a view-dependent translation of the view-independent surface based on the current view of the user to generate a view-dependent surface and to provide the view-dependent surface to the first graphics processing node; and the first graphics processing node to perform a second set of graphics processing operations to complete rendering of the graphics scene using the view-dependent surface.

    Abstract: Apparatus and method for acceleration data structure refit. For example, one embodiment of an apparatus comprises: a ray generator to generate a plurality of rays in a first graphics scene; a hierarchical acceleration data structure generator to construct an acceleration data structure comprising a plurality of hierarchically arranged nodes including inner nodes and leaf nodes stored in a memory in a depth-first search (DFS) order; traversal hardware logic to traverse one or more of the rays through the acceleration data structure; intersection hardware logic to determine intersections between the one or more rays and one or more primitives within the hierarchical acceleration data structure; a node refit unit comprising circuitry and/or logic to read consecutively through at least the inner nodes in the memory in reverse DFS order to perform a bottom-up refit operation on the hierarchical acceleration data structure.

    Abstract: An apparatus and method to execute ray tracing instructions. For example, one embodiment of an apparatus comprises execution circuitry to execute a dequantize instruction to convert a plurality of quantized data values to a plurality of dequantized data values, the dequantize instruction including a first source operand to identify a plurality of packed quantized data values in a source register and a destination operand to identify a destination register in which to store a plurality of packed dequantized data values, wherein the execution circuitry is to convert each packed quantized data value in the source register to a floating point value, to multiply the floating point value by a first value to generate a first product and to add the first product to a second value to generate a dequantized data value, and to store the dequantized data value in a packed data element location in the destination register.

    Abstract: A channel (e.g., memory channel) coupling a processor to multiple devices (e.g., DIMMs) is described. The channel has an interconnect topology with multiple interconnect portions coupled together with two or more junctions. At least one of these junctions has first and second interconnect portions that cross each other to form a plus-shaped junction. Also, the interconnect routing between the two or more junctions has an impedance matched to impedance of the two or more junctions.

    Abstract: An apparatus is described. The apparatus includes a memory module. The memory module includes a first printed circuit board having a first transmission line. The first printed circuit board has memory chips disposed thereon. The memory module includes a second printed board having a second transmission line that is coupled to the first transmission line to form a signal path through the first and second printed circuit boards. The second printed circuit board has greater flexibility than the first printed circuit board. The memory module includes a connector to align an I/O that is coupled to the second transmission line with a corresponding I/O that is associated with a motherboard that is to send and/or receive a signal to and/or from the signal path.
