ABSTRACT:
Mechanism for accurately measuring useful capacity of a processor allocated to each thread in a simultaneously multi-threading data processing system. Instructions dispatched from multiple threads are executed by the processor on a same clock cycle. A determination is made whether Time Base (TB) register bit (60) is changing. A dispatch charge value is determined for each thread, and added to the Processor Utilization Resource Register for each thread when TB bit (60) changes.
