N2 - Multi-core processors have shown to be superior to single-core with respect to performance and power efficiency. However, multi-core imposes additional challenges on system complexity and application programming. This paper reviews benefits and challenges of multi-core processors in embedded real-time applications like humanoid robotics. Selected approaches towards enabling multi-core processors are shown, covering multiple hardware/software abstraction levels, including isolation of individual applications, differentiated quality-of-service support, thread mapping, and resource-aware programming.
