A team is parallelizing a large matrix multiplication across a cluster of GPUs. They successfully decompose the matrix so that sub-problems fit onto each GPU, avoiding out-of-memory errors. However, profiling reveals that within each GPU, the computational cores are frequently idle, leading to poor overall performance. This suggests a bottleneck where the cores are waiting for data to be fetched from memory. Which component of a two-level, tile-based parallelization strategy is most likely misco

A team is implementing a large matrix multiplication using a two-level, tile-based approach for parallel processing on multiple hardware units. Match each of the following implementation goals to the level at which it is primarily addressed.
