The purpose of multi-programming is to maximize the CPU utilization through some process running at all times in the CPU. Processes change its state during the time of its execution that may be in one ...

In the traditional approaches, processes of planning and scheduling are done sequentially, where the process plan is determined before the actual scheduling is performed. This simple approach ignores ...

For developers, threading is an important issue that impacts game performance. Here's how task scheduling works in Apple Silicon games. Demands on GPU and CPUs are some of the most compute-intensive ...

Dietmar Eggemann posted a patch from Quentin Perret to take advantage of energy-efficient CPUs on asymmetric multiprocessor (AMP) systems. AMP is distinguished from SMP (symmetric multiprocessor) ...
