Abstract
An embodiment of the invention is a technique to generate a mask schedule for thread scheduling in a multiprocessor system having N clusters of processors. A primary mask is obtained from a primary set of granularity masks. The granularity masks are created according to a thread granularity. The primary mask is filtered using a filter mask to generate a first affinity mask.
