Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving an instruction for decoding in a processor core and dynamically handling the instruction with one of multiple behaviors based on whether contention is predicted. If no contention is predicted, the instruction is executed in the core, and if contention is predicted data associated with the instruction is marshaled and sent to a selected remote agent for execution. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
