Research: Windows XP CPU scheduling
I'm trying to research information about how Windows XP at a low level (e.g. at the kernel level). I am looking for links to credible sources (e.g. msdn, technet, microsoft.com, NOT wikipedia).
I'm looking for information about Windows XP's CPU SCHEDULING.
In particular
- How does windows utilize multiple cpu's when it schedules processes?
- How does xp home differ from xp pro in it's cpu scheduling?
- How many cores supported? How many bits?
- What special cpu features does XP take specific advantage of? (hyperthreading, vm, etc.)

That's a phenomenal book. Turns out my library has an e-version of the book available. Thank you!
Mark also has some videos over at Microsoft Technet on resource allocation in Vista and kernel advances on Server 2008 that you might be interested in (Search by name):

He does respond to e-mail or least he did when I asked him a few years old whether the text-based portion of Windows was really DOS or really Windows.
I also found a bug in psexec....he saw it, corrected and re-compiled a new version in a matter of days. Very nice guy.
