Abstract

Techniques are generally described for allocating a thread to heterogeneous processor cores. Example techniques may include monitoring real time computing data related to the heterogeneous processor cores processing the thread, allocating the thread to the heterogeneous processor cores based, at least in part, on the real time computing data, and/or executing the thread by the respective allocated heterogeneous processor core.
