Programming multi-core processors

Multi-core processors are here to stay not just in PCs but in embedded systems. ARM's Cortex-A9 MPCore is the "first ARM processor to combine the Cortex application class architecture with multiprocessing capabilities for scalable performance and provides enhanced multi-core technology." Renesas has five MCU models that consist of two SH2A-FPU CPU cores. Freescale and Continental Automotive Systems' EBS business unit have jointly developed multi-core MCU dubbed SPACE.
The multiple cores bring new challenges to programming. Are you working on a project that involves multi-core processors? What are the challenges you're facing? We are looking forward to hearing your views on the challenges and solutions.

Hi,
I thought the challenge will be the optimal efficiency including handshaking procedure and power consumption. The simplest handshaking procedure will increase the efficiency then also reduce the power consumption.
