I'm building a PC with the new Intel I7 quad core processor. With hyperthreading turned on it will report 8 cores in Task Manager.
Some of my colleagues are saying that hyperthreading will make th...

Two different threads within a single process can share a common memory location by reading and/or writing to it.
Usually, such (intentional) sharing is implemented using atomic operations using ...

I read that the multithreading is the feature that a single core can manage many threads (not in parallel) and the benefit is that the CPU is always working. For the Hyperthreading that a single co...

I found references to hart on page 35 of the RISC-V 2.1 spec. However, I could not find a definition for hart in this document. Does hart refer to a hardware-thread or something more sinister?

While debugging some performance issue in app I'm working on, I found out weird behaviour of kernel scheduler.
It seems that busy SCHED_FIFO tasks tend to be scheduled on logical cores from the sam...

I am using the Ubuntu.
How can I check whether Hyper Threading is enabled or not.
And if it is disabled, how can I enable it?

How do I assign 2 MPI processes per core?
For example, if I do mpirun -np 4 ./application then it should use 2 physical cores to run 4 MPI processes (2 processes per core). I am using Open MPI 1.6...

The primary idea behind HT/SMT was that when one thread stalls, another thread on the same core can co-opt the rest of that core's idle time and run with it, transparently.
In 2013 Intel dropped...

I’m using a project where each time you double the number of threads, you add between 40% to 60% overhead. As hyperthreading increases performance to a maximum of 30% this means, the program runs s...

I have an Intel CPU with 4 HT cores (8 logical CPUs) and I built two simple processes.
The first one:

To my knowledge, both MMU and TLB are not shared in a hyper-threaded core in Intel x86_64.
