Abstract
On a multi-core processor that supports simultaneous multi-threading, the power state for each logical processor is tracked. Upon indication that a logical processor is ready to transition into a deep low power state, software remapping (e.g., thread-hopping) may be performed. Accordingly, if multiple logical processors, on different cores, are in a low-power state, they are re-mapped to same core and the core is then placed into a low power state. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
