Multicore System. A Multi-core processor is a single computing component that has two or more independent cores or processing units. These cores are the ones that read and perform your program’s instructions on your CPU.

Multicore Distributed Processing System

A distributed processing system delegates the allocation and control of computing work units to agent applications running on computing resources including multi-processor and multi-core systems. The distributed processing system includes at least one agent associated with at least one computing resource. The distributed processing system creates work units corresponding with execution phases of applications. Work units can be associated with concurrency data that specifies how applications are executed on multiple processors and / or processor cores. The agent collects information about its associated computing resources and requests work units from the server using this information and the concurrency data. An agent can monitor the performance of executing work units to better select subsequent work units. The distributed processing system may also be implemented within a single computing resource to improve processor core utilization of applications. Additional computing resources can augment the single computing resource and execute pending work units at any time.

Systems and methods for object rate limiting in multi-core system

The present invention is directed towards systems and methods for managing a rate of request for an object transmitted between a server and one or more clients via a multi-core intermediary device. A first core of the intermediary device can receive a request for an object and assume ownership of the object. The first core can store the object in shared memory along with a rate-related counter for the object and generate a hash to the object and counter. Other cores can obtain the hash from the first core and access the object and counter in shared memory. Policy engines and throttlers in operation on each core can control the rate of access to the stored object.

Systems and methods for identifying a processor from a plurality of processors to provide symmetrical request and response processing

Described herein is a method and system for distributing request and responses across a multi-core system. Each core executes a packet engine that further processes data packets allocated to that core. A flow distributor executing within the multi-core system forwards client requests to a packet engine on a core that is selected based on a value generated when a hash is applied to a tuple comprising a client IP address, a client port, a server IP address and a server port identified in the request. The packet engine selects a first IP address and a first port of the core, and determines whether a hash of a tuple comprising those values identifies the selected core. A modification is then made to the client request so that the client request includes a tuple comprising the first IP address, the server IP address, the first port and the server port.

Systems and methods for cookie proxy jar management across cores in a multi-core system

The present solution is directed towards systems and methods for managing cookies by a multi-core device. The device is intermediary to a client and one or more servers. A first core of a multi-core device receives a response from a server to a request of the client through a user session. The response comprises a cookie. The first core removes the cookie from the response and stores the cookie in a corresponding storage for the session. The first core forwards the response without the cookie to the client. A second core then receives via a session, a second request from the client. The second core determines the identification of the first core as owner of the session from the second request. The second core then communicates to the first core a third request for cookie information for the session.

Highly distributed parallel processing on multi-core device

There is provided a highly distributed multi-core system with an adaptive scheduler. By resolving data dependencies in a given list of parallel tasks and selecting a subset of tasks to execute based on provided software priorities, applications can be executed in a highly distributed manner across several types of slave processing cores. Moreover, by overriding provided priorities as necessary to adapt to hardware or other system requirements, the task scheduler may provide for low-level hardware optimizations that enable the timely completion of time-sensitive workloads, which may be of particular interest for real-time applications. Through this modularization of software development and hardware optimization, the conventional demand on application programmers to micromanage multi-core processing for optimal performance is thus avoided, thereby streamlining development and providing a higher quality end product.
