Abstract
The invention describes methods, systems and an apparatus for determining a priority value for a thread for execution on a multithreading processor system. The priority value is determined subject to a priority base rating and an application priority rating. The priority base rating represents a priority rating of the thread with regard to other threads. The application priority rating represents a priority rating of the thread from the thread's application point of view.
