Multicore or hypervisor first ?

Hello,
I think talking about multicore without making allusion to hypervision is a miss.
Because people have had to use the word multicore and thinking about the old days of multiprocessing and acronyms like : SymetricMultiProcessing=SMP or Asymetric=AMP, even Frieden made the fault in spite of being qualified for use of the concept.
Now, we have cores : not « symmetric » processors outside on the motherboard ; that’s the difference, we can’t run resource allocation by the OS without a layout of abstraction like hypervision due to lack of « autonomy » of cores (like allocating resources and not solely running the OS).
Here is a good start by IBM expert :
