Abstract

In a multiprocessor system, events capable of modifying the dispatching of processes to the processors (CPU, CPUi) start the execution of dispatching software charged with defining the new dispatching as a function of events and various data. When the number of processors (CPU, CPUi) is large, the microsoftware must be optimized. To that end, the microsoftware is subdivided into a plurality of specialized microprogram modules for determining the dispatching in response to respective categories of particular events. A central microprogram module takes into account the events other than those processed by the specialized modules.
