Abstract:
A computer processor is disclosed. The computer processor comprises one or more processor resources. The computer processor further comprises a plurality of hardware thread units coupled to the one or more processor resources. The computer processor may be configured to permit simultaneous access to the one or more processor resources by only a subset of hardware thread units of the plurality of hardware thread units. The number of hardware threads in the subset may be less than the total number of hardware threads of the plurality of hardware thread units.
