APPLICATION SCHEDULING IN HETEROGENEOUS MULTIPROCESSOR COMPUTING PLATFORMS

摘要

Methods and apparatus to schedule applications in heterogeneous multiprocessor computing platforms are described. In one embodiment, information regarding performance (e.g., execution performance and/or power consumption performance) of a plurality of processor cores of a processor is stored (and tracked) in counters and/or tables. Logic in the processor determines which processor core should execute an application based on the stored information. Other embodiments are also claimed and disclosed.
