Abstract

An approach for simultaneous multithreading in a processor. The approach comprises measuring SMT-performance value of a software code and measuring non-SMT-performance value the software code, comparing the SMT-performance value with the non-SMT performance value and dispatching the software code for execution mode by the processor based on the comparison, wherein the execution mode comprises SMT-mode and non-SMT-mode of the processor.
