Abstract
A method for dispatching tasks on processor cores based on memory access efficiency is disclosed. The method identifies a task and a memory area to be accessed by the task. The method may use one or more of a compiler, code knowledge, and run-time statistics to identify the memory area that is accessed by the task. The method identifies multiple processor cores that are candidates to execute the task and identifies a particular processor core from the multiple processor cores that provides most efficient access to the memory area. The method dispatches the task to execute on the particular processor core that is deemed most efficient. A corresponding system and computer program product are also disclosed.
