A data processing device assigns tasks to processor cores in a more distributed fashion. In one embodiment, the data processing device can schedule tasks for execution amongst the processor cores in a pseudo-random fashion. In another embodiment, the processor core can schedule tasks for execution amongst the processor cores based on the relative amount of historical utilization of each processor core. In either case, the effects of bias temperature instability (BTI) resulting from task execution are distributed among the processor cores in a more equal fashion than if tasks are scheduled according to a fixed order.

A streaming engine employed in a digital signal processor specified a fixed data stream. Once started the data stream is read only and cannot be written. Once fetched the data stream is stored in a first-in-first-out buffer for presentation to functional units in the fixed order. Data use by the functional unit is controlled using the input operand fields of the corresponding instruction. A read only operand coding supplies the data an input of the functional unit. A read/advance operand coding supplies the data and also advances the stream to the next sequential data elements. The read only operand coding permits reuse of data without requiring a register of the register file for temporary storage.
