Common programming models for use on a dual-core processor

As embedded processors become more computationally capable, many new (and more advanced) algorithms can be ported, which in turn enable new applications. The most flexible architectures scale from low-end to high-end applications, enabling a common development platform across projects as well as providing more flexibility for development teams.
One way processor vendors provide the desired scalability with a single architecture is to include both single- and dual-core platforms. The goal with a multi-core processor is to allow nearly ideal scaling without overcomplicating the programming model. For example, in a dual-core system, the goal is to achieve as close to a 2x performance increase as possible.
In this paper, we will discuss the most common programming techniques for maximizing performance, as well as some system-related topics that commonly arise when porting to a dual-core processor.
