Abstract
A processor includes a front end and a scheduler. The front end includes logic to determine whether to apply an acyclical or cyclical thread assignment scheme to code received at the processor, and to, based upon a determined thread assignment scheme, assign code to a static logical thread and to a rotating logical thread. The scheduler includes logic to assign the static logical thread to the same physical thread upon a subsequent control flow execution of the static logical thread, and to assign the rotating logical thread to different physical threads upon different executions of instructions in the rotating logical thread.
