Are Multi-Core Processors a Waste of Time for Android?

Intel has claimed that system-on-chip (SoC) vendors have not done enough to optimise Android for multi-core processors.

Intel’s single-core Medfield Atom processor enters the market at time when almost all of the big hitting ARM vendors are focusing efforts on dual-core and quad-core processors. However Intel said that chip firms should do more to optimise Android for multi-core processors as it does not effectively make use of multiple cores.
