How good is hyperthreading?
Author: Gabe Parmer Date: 2009-11-03 09:14
As defined in Levy's ISCA paper, SMT == hyperthreading.

www.cs.washington.edu/research/smt

and the publication:

"Simultaneous Multithreading: Maximizing On-Chip Parallelism"
with ps link @
www.cs.washington.edu/research/smt/papers/isca95abstract.html

The name SMT might be quite ambiguous now and I agree it probably shouldn't be used. However, for history's sake, it is well-defined, and was good research.
