    Hyper Threading Technology FINAL

    Uploaded by

    Ashok A Patel
    Hyper-Threading technology allows a single processor to simultaneously multitask multiple threads. It makes the processor appear as two logical processors to the operating system, enabling both threads to access processor resources concurrently. This increases CPU utilization and allows applications to complete tasks faster by taking advantage of idle resources. While some operating systems like Windows XP are optimized to support Hyper-Threading, older systems like Windows 2000 do not recognize the logical processors it creates.

    What is Hyper-Threading ?

     Hyper-Threading technology is an innovative design


    from Intel enables multi-threaded software
    applications to execute threads in parallel on a single
    processor instead of processing threads in a linear
    fashion.
     Simultaneous multi-threading is called then
    Hyper Threading .
    How Hyper-Threading Works?

     Hyper Threading based processor is considered as


    two logical processors.
     The first logical processor can track one software
    thread, while second logical processor can track
    another software thread Simultaneously.
     Both threads share the same resources.
     If the first thread uses the resources, then second is
    remain ideal and if second thread uses the resources
    then first thread is remain ideal.
     So, multi-threaded application can now take
    advantage of Thread Level Parallelism (TLP).
    How Hyper-Threading Works?

     Hyper Threading Technology also increases CPU


    utilization and perform a specific task at a less time.
     For Example: A Computer running a PowerPoint
    Presentation and Antivirus software in a background
     In a System without Hyper Threading the CPU switches
    from one application to another,by producing one
    thread for each application.
     And with Hyper Threading ,the thread of second
    application will be added up to the unused resources of
    the first thread, processing at the same time.
     So,Hyper threading technology can boost CPU
    utilization up to 50%.

    CPU waste time


    HT increases the speed of the computer

     (HT) allows execution of multiple threads in parallel


    on a single processor. In some applications, HT
    provides a significant speed increase. Also, for typical
    operating system use (Windows XP), HT can improve
    system response times
     Hyper-Threading Technology also delivers faster
    response times for multi-tasking workload
    environments By allowing the processor to use on-
    die resources that would otherwise have been idle,
    Hyper-Threading Technology provides a performance
    boost on multi-threading and multi-tasking
    operations
    Understanding
    Dual Processors
    Hyper-Threading Technology
    Current Status

     
     HT Technology is available on Intel Xenon processors
    and Intel Pentium 4 processors.
     The following Operating Systems have been
    optimized for Hyper-Threading Technology:
                                                                                               
                                                           
    WinXP Pro
      WinXP                     
    HE
      Linux version 2.4.x (and higher)
     The following OS does not support HT Technology
    Win2000(all versions)
    WinNT 4.0
    WinME
    Win98SE
    Current Status
     Along with the launch of the P4 processor,
    Intel also announced a list of motherboard
    chipsets supporting the new technology.
     These are the Intel 845PE, 845GE, 845GV and
    850E. Boards based on these chipsets are also
    capable of delivering 533MHz Front Side Bus
    speed.
    Compaq Motherboards Support for HT
    Technology

    To disable Hyper-Threading:
    1.       Press F9 at POST to enter ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU)
    2.       From the Main Menu, select Advanced Options
    3.       From the Advanced Options menu, select Hyper-Threading
    4.       Select Disabled.
    Hyper-Threading Technology offers many
    benefits to e-Business and the enterprise such
    as:

     Enables more user support improving business


    productivity
     Provides faster response times for Internet and e-
    Business applications enhancing customer experience
     Increases number of transactions that can be
    processed
     Allows compatibility with existing IA-32 applications
    and operating systems
     Handles larger workloads
     Offers headroom for future business growth and new
    solution capabilities
