%X Manufacturers are creating multi\-core processors to solve
   specialized
problems. This kind of processor can process
   tasks faster by
running them in parallel. This paper
   explores the usability of the
Communicating Sequential
   Processes model to create a simulation
of a multi\-core
   processor aimed at media processing in hand\-held
mobile
   devices. Every core in such systems can have
   different
capabilities and can generate different amounts of
   heat depending
on the task being performed. Heat generated
   reduces the performance
of the core. We have used mobile
   processes in JCSP to implement
the allocation of tasks to
   cores based upon the work the core has
done previously.
