Hyper-Threading: Presented By:-Hemant Kumar

Hyper-Threading is a technology that makes a single physical processor appear as two or more logical processors, increasing utilization of processor resources and improving performance. It brings a simultaneous multi-threading approach to Intel architecture. Key resources like registers and instruction buffers are duplicated to support the appearance of multiple logical processors on one physical die. This allows both threads to execute in parallel, improving performance on tasks like web servers and databases that perform multiple concurrent operations. Hyper-Threading has been implemented in several Intel processors including Pentium 4, Core 2 Duo, and various i3, i5, and i7 models.
