# runAsync(with:feeds:targetOperations:resultsDictionary:executionDescriptor:)

Encodes the graph for the given feeds to returns the target tensor values in the results dictionary provided by the user.

```
func runAsync(with commandQueue: any MTLCommandQueue, feeds: [MPSGraphTensor : MPSGraphTensorData], targetOperations: [MPSGraphOperation]?, resultsDictionary: [MPSGraphTensor : MPSGraphTensorData], executionDescriptor: MPSGraphExecutionDescriptor?)
```

## Parameters

`commandQueue`

CommandQueue passed to exectute the graph on.

`feeds`

Feeds dictionary for the placeholder tensors.

`targetOperations`

Operations to be completed at the end of the run.

`resultsDictionary`

MPSGraphTensors dictionary passed by user, these will be filled with graph output data.

`executionDescriptor`

ExecutionDescriptor to be passed in and used.

## Discussion

It ensures all target operations also executed. This call is asynchronous and will return immediately if a completionHandler is set.
