Abstract
Various embodiments are generally directed to techniques for assigning portions of a task among individual cores of one or more processor components of each processing device of a distributed processing system. An apparatus to assign processor component cores to perform task portions includes a processor component; an interface to couple the processor component to a network to receive data that indicates available cores of base and subsystem processor components of processing devices of a distributed processing system, the subsystem processor components made accessible on the network through the base processor components; and a core selection component for execution by the processor component to select cores from among the available cores to execute instances of task portion routines of a task based on a selected balance point between compute time and power consumption needed to execute the instances of the task portion routines. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
