Within a processing system, thread count asymmetries manifest when one or more cores of a processing device are disabled. To determine such thread count asymmetries, discovery operations are performed to determine thread count asymmetries for one or more hierarchy levels of a processing device based on a number of threads per enumerated instance within the hierarchy level. In response to the determining a thread count asymmetry, one thread identifier for each enumerated instance within the asymmetric hierarchy level is defined to determine a representation of the asymmetry. Using the representation of the symmetry, software tasks associated with one or more application within the processing system are performed.
