A clearer understanding of the differences between multithreading on a single coprocessor and utilizing multiple processors is essential to designers of wireless systems. Cell phones were among the ...

Mutiprocessing and multithreading both assert this multiprocessing complexity to the embedded developer, all is not equal. This article inspects the cost and trade off between the two.

Using multiprocessing and multithreading architectures together helps generate higher performance in a range of applications.

Threads can be dedicated to run on a processor. The main difference with multiprocessing is that the threads in multithreaded runtimes share one memory space.

In a multithreaded or multiprocessing application, this approach isn't sufficient because of the potential for a switch to a different thread context (TC), or access by a different processing ...
