MIGRATING THREADS BETWEEN ASYMMETRIC CORES IN A MULTIPLE CORE PROCESSOR

Some implementations provide techniques and arrangements to migrate threads from a first core of a processor to a second core of the processor. For example, some implementations may identify one or more threads scheduled for execution at a processor. The processor may include a plurality of cores, including a first core having a first characteristic and a second core have a second characteristic that is different than the first characteristic. Execution of the one or more threads by the first core may be initiated. A determination may be made whether to apply a migration policy. In response to determining to apply the migration policy, migration of the one or more threads from the first core to the second core may be initiated.
