    Abstract: Apparatuses, methods and storage medium associated with scheduling of threads and/or virtual machines, are disclosed herein. In embodiments, an apparatus is provided with a scheduler of an operating system and/or a virtual machine monitor. The scheduler is to retrieve or receive capabilities of the cores of one or more multi-core processors of the apparatus with diverse capabilities, and schedule a plurality of threads for execution on selected one or ones of the cores, based at least in part on the capabilities of the cores and characteristics of the plurality of threads. The virtual machine monitor is to retrieve or receive capabilities of the cores, and schedule a plurality of virtual machines for execution on selected one or ones of the cores, based at least in part on the capabilities of the cores and respective priorities of the virtual machines. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
