A hardware thread is selectively forced to single step the execution of software instructions from a work packet granule. A“single step”packet is associated with a work packet granule. The work packet granule, with the associated“single step”packet, is dispatched as an appended work packet granule to a preselected hardware thread in a processor core, which, in one embodiment, is located at a node in a Network On a Chip (NOC). The work packet granule then executes in a single step mode until completion.
