Abstract

In an embodiment, a method for interactively varying scheduling of a multi-threaded application executing on a symmetric multi-core processor provides an interface in a co-simulation design environment. The interface is associated with a multi-threaded application executing on a target processor that includes symmetric processor cores. The method also sets a scheduling attribute of the multi-threaded application using the interface. The setting occurs when the multi-threaded application is executing. The method further receives data associated with the executing of the multi-threaded application in the co-simulation design environment when the multi-threaded application is executing subsequent to the setting of the scheduling attribute.
