+## Components
+
+### VulkanDeviceAPI
+
+Implements the TVM DeviceAPI interface. Owns the core Vulkan datastructures. Is
+responsible for initializing the Vulkan instance and devices, querying for
+possible extensions.
+
+### VulkanThreadEntry
+
+Thread-local state for the Vulkan runtime. Maintains a staging buffer (for
+copies), and a VulkanStream per device.
+
+### VulkanWrappedFunc
+
+Responsible for launching computation kernels. Responsible for obtaining a
+VulkanPipeline instance (from the VulkanModuleNode), and launches the kernel
+(via immediate or deferred mode) on the active VulkanStream instance.
+
+## Stream execution in the Vulkan programming model.
+
+The natural model for TVM DeviceAPI implementation and runtime follows the CUDA
+API model. That is, we launch "kernels" onto a (implicit or explicit) "stream"
+(which execute asynchronously with respect to the host, but ordered with respect
+to the stream), and explicitly synchronize the stream with respect to the host.
+We simulate this behaviour in the Vulkan model by maintaining a thread-local
+`vkCommandBuffer` instance, and queueing up (or eagerly executing, depending on
+the availability of the `VK_KHR_push_descriptor` extension). When we synchronize
+the stream, we end the command buffer recording, submit it to the device queue,
+and wait on the corresponding fence.
