Abstract: In an embodiment, a multi-processor mobile communications device includes a first processor system executing a concurrency manager server application (CMSA) and a second processor system executing a concurrency manager client application (CMCA). The CMSA determines priority levels related to access to resources for a first set of applications that are configured for execution on the first processor system and a second set of applications that are configured for execution on the second processor system. The CMSA notifies the CMCA of the determined priorities. The CMSA and the CMCA each then selectively grant or reject access to the resources for the first and second sets of applications, respectively, based on the determined priorities levels. In another embodiment, if the CMSA or CMCA rejects an application's request to access resources, the CMSA or CMCA can determine availability of alternative resources by which the requesting application can achieve its goal.

Abstract: A dynamic performance profiler is operable to receive, in substantially real-time, raw performance data from a testing platform. A software-based image is executing on a target hardware platform (e.g., either simulated or actual) on the testing platform, and the testing platform monitors such execution to generate corresponding raw performance data, which is communicated, in substantially real-time, as it is generated during execution of the software-based image to a dynamic profiler. The dynamic profiler may be configured to archive select portions of the received raw performance data to data storage. As the raw performance data is received, the dynamic profiler analyzes the data to determine whether the performance of the software-based image on the target hardware platform violates a predefined performance constraint. When the performance constraint is violated, the dynamic profiler archives a portion of the received raw performance.
