Abstract: A mechanism is described for facilitating execution-aware hybrid preemption for execution of tasks in computing environments. A method of embodiments, as described herein, includes detecting a software application being hosted by a computing device, where the software applications to facilitate one or more tasks that are capable of being executed by a graphics processor of the computing device. The method may further include selecting at least one of a fine grain preemption or a coarse grain preemption based on comparison of a first time estimation and a second time estimation relating to the one or more tasks at thread level execution and work group level execution, respectively. The method may further include initiating performance of the selected one of the fine grain preemption and the coarse grain preemption.
